About Us

Action Alliance started through the desire to give care providers the training and tools to rescusitate newborn babies who aren’t breathing at birth. We also felt it important to give families assistance to improve lives through improving education and vital food assistance.

We also wanted to promote cultural exchanges as part of our outreach. Cultural exchange enriches the lives of all participants and their respective communities. Bringing together people of different cultures who work together to help others brings joy and understanding into lives.

We are honored to work with our Guatemalan nonprofit service provider, Fundamaya. Their leadership is and workforce is native to Guatemala and know the communities well. Sharon Smart, a founding member of Fundamaya has lived in Guatemala for 30 years and has worked with Fundamaya for the pasted 15 years. With them, we work to assist their communities’ poorest families to educate their children, care for their elderly, and assist with chronic and acute food needs. We believe that individuals who are in poverty with little hope of improving their situation can be given hope through thoughtful assistance which will, in turn, strengthen their families and communities.
