Maya Traditions Foundation

Maya Traditions Foundation We directly support indigenous Maya women and youth from six rural communities in the Western Highlands of Guatemala.

Maya Traditions Foundation is a Guatemalan and U.S registered non-profit organization that supports the development of indigenous Maya women and youth by providing them opportunities that honor their heritage and build vibrant, sustainable futures. We are located in Panajachel, Solola, Guatemala. Through our education, health, and ethical tourism programs, we help 49 women and 67 students access g

reater opportunities for their futures all the while honoring their Maya heritage. We believe that the path to a healthy, sustainable future is an incremental process that, while guided by the Foundation, is ultimately led by our partner communities, the women, and students. Our vision is a world without marginalization where Maya people, in particular women and youth, lead and flourish building on their traditions, communities and country.

Our Story

Maya Traditions was founded in 1996 to help skilled indigenous female artisans improve their quality of life while preserving their culture through facilitating access to a Fair Trade global marketplace. Over the years, we have grown to include social programs in youth education, community health and artisan development to better support the women artisans and their families.

In 2007, Fundación Tradiciones Mayas became a registered Guatemalan non-governmental organization with the goal of increasing our social programs to further impact the communities we work with.

We are based in Panajachel, Sololá, Guatemala and are headed by several indigenous Maya women and international volunteers. We currently work with six indigenous rural communities throughout the western highlands of Guatemala and support over 500 indigenous Mayans through our social educational programming.

Founder Jane Stiller Mintz (1943 – 2009)
