Equipping Future Generations

Our scholarship program helps communities in the Guatemalan highlands lift vulnerable children – and their communities – out of poverty.

Nicolas Fund for Education earned a 2021 Platinum Seal of Transparency!

Now, everyone can see our strategy, metrics, and achievements

“I feel happy to be in
[Nicolás Christian] School because it
teaches me the right path.”
– Juan Elías, La Esperanza
