关于我们
Ama aims to connect people to education and empowerment. What this means, is that we aid communities in poverty and provide educational programs, so that people in need can experience growth and opportunity. We earned a 2021 Silver Seal of Transparency! Learn more about our organization’s impact through our #NonprofitProfile on @CandidDotOrg: https://www.guidestar.org/profile/37-1907531?_gl=1*1ffp7os*_ga*MTQ0NTk4MjQxNC4xNjMwODcxNDkw*_ga_5W8PXYYGBX*MTYzMDg3MTQ4OS4xLjEuMTYzMDg3MTYwNy4w&_ga=2.45009188.1086982695.1630871493-1445982414.1630871490 In 2018, Ama was established with the construction of our Connection Center in Zapopan, MX, where we saw a great need. The Connection Center serves as a safe facility for the community in Zapopan to receive legal aid, educational courses (English & Computer Literacy), a sewing academy, and other programs still in development. It is also the headquarters of our mission trips, where our partners in the U.S. and Mexico join forces. In Zapopan, Ama serves an area with over 300,000 people living in extreme poverty. Areas of make-shift housing, no running water, no electricity, and a lot of disparity. We believe that in order to avoid toxic charity, we must focus on sustainability, consistency, and trackable growth in these areas. That is why we center our work around our Connection Center, which operates year round in Zapopan. Ama has served an estimated 50,000 human beings since its inception. We have begun establishing programs in the United States as well as Mexico, with a focus on vulnerable and underserved populations in the immigrant and refugee communities. Our long-term goal is that our Connection Center programs be duplicated throughout the United States, Mexico, Latin America, and the world!

?? Ama Local Toy Distribution for New American Children is Happening This Week! Our volunteers are busy making sure families have what they need—shopping for coats, gathering donations, and preparing gift and resource bags. This Sunday, our delivery drivers head out to bring these essential items directly to families in need. Right now, we’re especially in need of 23 winter coats for children, teens, and adults, ranging from sizes 2T to Adult XL. Many of these families are experiencing Michigan’s cold winter for the first time, and proper outerwear can make a world of difference. Accessing resources can be challenging due to language barriers and limited mobility, so we’re determined to bring warmth and comfort right to their doors. How You Can Help: Contribute a monetary donation of $20–$40 toward a coat Provide a Meijer Gift Card that we can use to purchase winter gear We’re deeply grateful to our partners at Meijer, who once again have stepped in to support this important work. Their faithful partnership ensures that these children receive not only warm coats but also the joy of holiday gifts.If this mission touches your heart, please consider joining us in this effort. Your support truly makes a difference. Thank you! ?? Give Now: https://lnkd.in/eae9NCSA
