Dignified Lives
Caring for Our Elders and People with Disabilities in the Kichwa Añangu Community
The well-being of elders and people with disabilities is essential for building an inclusive and equitable community. In the Ecuadorian Amazon, these groups face significant challenges due to limited access to specialized medical care, adapted infrastructure, and opportunities for active participation in society.
The Sacha Muskuy Foundation is committed to ensuring that every person in the Kichwa Añangu Community receives the care, respect, and support they deserve.
We promote initiatives that enhance the quality of life for these essential members of the community.
Access to medications and specialized treatments.
Opportunities to participate in community events and meetings.
Education on balanced and sustainable nutrition.
Thanks to the efforts of Lives with Dignity, we have achieved:
Over 50 elders and people with disabilities have benefited from medical care programs.
Creation of participation spaces where they continue sharing their wisdom with the community.
Implementation of accessible infrastructure in key areas of the community.
