Maya Educational Foundation

Our Story

Founded in 1992 by members of the Guatemala Scholars Network, the Maya Educational Foundation (MEF) was established to support the Maya people who suffered during Guatemala's civil war. With a mission to provide educational opportunities, MEF launched the Programa de Becas Mayas, the first scholarship program aimed at empowering Maya students. Over the years, MEF has expanded its reach, now serving over 500 students across Guatemala, Chiapas, Mexico, and southern Belize.

Impact

This year, MEF proudly provides scholarships for 490 Maya students, including 210 at the university level and 280 at middle and high school levels. These scholarships empower students to transform their lives through education.
