To our dear compañerxs in the struggle for life,
We embrace you from afar in your diverse geographies, knowing the worry we share, in the tempest that we currently face. Needless to say, the organized communities of Chiapas are no stranger to this storm.

Taking inspiration from the unfaltering commitment of these communities in resistance, Schools for Chiapas continues to work alongside them in their construction of autonomy and defense of territory. Hosting workshops in health and education promotion, supporting the building of schools, collaborating in the defense of human rights, raising funds and raising awareness, the long trajectory of solidarity and accompaniment is an ever-evolving labor of love and and ongoing apprenticeship. In a context where the politics from above continue to bring nothing but chaos and destruction, our determination to work from below and to the left continues --building strength and sharing knowledge.

Whether it be in community-based education or in community health promotion, in support of women's organizing, or our shared cultural and educational center and sustainable collective economies, our work together makes a difference.

Your Gift of Change explicitly
supports these projects.
The ongoing solidarity of our monthly donors allows us to accompany more communities, collaborate with more collectives, and strengthen local networks in defense of dignity and life in Chiapas.

Your support on Giving Tuesday this year will helps us:


  • Systemetize and develop our curriculum for education promoters in diverse environments.
  • Expand the reach of our herbal and preventive medicine workshops to communities in the highlands and northern part of the state.
  • Collaborate in community mapping and needs assessments for future workshops in both education and health.
  • Contribute to life-saving surgical equipment used to serve numerous communities.
