Organization Information
Mission Statement
Enhance a Village, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing poverty in developing nations by educating the children and improving their communities.
Description
Enhance a Village is dedicated to eradicating poverty worldwide by ending the cycle of poverty.EAV differentiates itself by not getting immersed in the "hamster wheel" of requesting funds, doing the work, and justifying more funding. EAV’s metric of success is to become redundant when the village has successfully demonstrated independence from the organization’s assistance and be a thriving community. EAV can then move on elsewhere to make an impact and alleviate poverty.
We are currently working in two villages in the Philippines. We have successfully provided access to clean water and are now trying to implement an aquaponics farming system, build community centers for continuing education and help with both COVID-19 and typhoon mitigation.
