To create social impact leaders 

among the poor

WHO 

WE

ARE

TRANSFORMA exists to create a new framework that helps social impact leaders, both participants from impoverished communities and local/international facilitators, develop self and people smart skills to promote change and a renewed commitment to the bigger purpose.

As we focus on the values and the culture of poverty alleviation, to create environments and organizations that allow people to experience well being and sustainable development, we also add value and with it riches to the country. By maximizing the meaning of their engagement as local/global citizens, we empower their participation in positive activities and relationships that become an answer to the large array of social needs.

THE PROBLEM

Within people who live in extreme poverty there is a subgroup composed of elderly women, undocumented immigrants, single mothers, abused women, prostitutes, addicts and others who together with their children are suffering from:

• Food insecurity (live on less than US$1.25 a day)

• Underpaid, insecure jobs

• Irregular income

• Lack of healthcare

• Inadequate housing

• Sicknesses

• Lack resources for transportation - instability in the family

• Lack of education and skills 

​

These women need wrap around programs to comprehensively address their needs in a wholistic manner and offer a social network of volunteers to accompany participants through a sustainable developmental process.

Our solution is to facilitate SOCIAL INCLUSION, HUMAN FORMATION,WORK-TECHNICAL SKILL DEVELOPMENT for BASIC COMPETENCIES, ENTREPRENEURIAL and LEADERSHIP TRAINING, CHILD CARE, MEALS AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME SOCIAL IMPACT LEADERS.
