SHARE Foundation: Building a New El Salvador Today

Description

SHARE supports the empowerment of historically impoverished and marginalized communities, as they strive to meet both their most immediate needs and construct long-term sustainable solutions to the problems of poverty, underdevelopment and social injustice.

The communities that we work with in El Salvador are changing the structures that keep people poor through an integrated effort that is reactivating sustainable local economies, creating viable rural policies that aid subsistence farmers, and financing projects that provide for the empowerment of women, development of leadership and community organizing.

SHARE also has a dynamic Sister Parish and community program where a relationship of accompaniment is created with communities in the US and El Salvador.

SHARE is about systemic change. Our advocacy program challenges corporate globalization with sustainable community development alternatives. This is the reason we have been able to serve the communities in El Salvador for over twenty years. We have great local partners, friends, staff and supporters.
