Our Mission

Mission Hope for Women and children | Empower. Transform. Sustain. Friendship, Inc. (FFF) is a 501© nonprofit organization focused on the holistic transformation of women and children in endemic deprivation to reverse the yoke of poverty by providing shelter, health, nutrition, education, economic skills, and personal development for long-term sustainability for the individual and the community. FFF's approach empowers, transforms, and sustains an individual's socio-economic environment to gain freedom, dignity, and security to live to their fullest potential. FFF aims to decrease poverty, gender disparity, and bridge social inequalities. In 2010, FFF launched in Guatemala with one program – the Widow Program, providing widows housing, education, and nutrition. In 2017, FFF branched into Egypt. In 2021, FFF established a tutoring program in Egypt, followed in 2023 by a tutoring program in Guatemala. Today, FFF has six programs that have impacted over 30,000 individuals and demonstrated a reversal of poverty of women and subsequent generations, the children.

Who We Are

We are a hands-on, relationship-based, all-volunteer nonprofit working in the northern mountains of Guatemala and in Egypt. We work to bring widows and their children, who are some of the most marginalized citizens in the countries we serve, to a level of sustainability through the donation of critical needs, and micro business grants. Networking with our volunteers allows us to increase our effectiveness: to date 42 widows have been gifted land and houses which are legally deeded to them, thus securing the future of their children. Housing security and education for their children prevents the need for the widows in our program to contract their children out for labor into the fields, or for their daughter to marry in their early teens in order to have shelter. Our board members bring a knowledge and passion for our work to our organization's participants; we develop relationships with each family in our program until they are self-sufficient enough to rotate out of the need for FFF services.
