Yapay Bolivia was born out of love for the people and culture of Bolivia. Yapay is Quechua for “give a little more.” The founding board members received much from those who took care of them while they were missionaries for their church in Bolivia. Wanting to give back, these women founded Yapay Bolivia, a 501c3 public charity, in 2016 with the aim of alleviating the effects of poverty for those who suffer most from it: women and children. Yapay Bolivia does this by supporting in-country institutions and programs, with a special focus on access to healthcare and education for women and children. Yapay Bolivia has partnered with in-country experts and professionals to ensure that projects are sustainable, including developing an innovative reporting and auditing system for hospital donations, and volunteer auditing projects and donations. Yapay Bolivia would not function without its Bolivian partnerships. Thanks to many generous donors, Yapay Bolivia has made a measurable difference in the lives of poverty-stricken women and children in Bolivia.
