A Breeze of Hope — Gnu Foundation’s newest Partner
This year we are proud to add A Breeze of Hope located in the City of Cochabamba, Bolivia as our newest Gnu Partner. As survivors of childhood sexual violence, Brisa De Angulo and Parker Palmer created A Breeze of Hope Foundation to build a world in which children grow up in safe, loving environments and to help other survivors regain the joy of living.
"The main goal of our Gnu Foundation Project is to help adolescent survivors of sexual violence and their non-offending family members acquire the skills and knowledge they need for economic independence. One path to realizing this goal was to create a café where they can practice their skills, make a small profit on the goods they produce, and eventually create their own small business to sustainably lift themselves from extreme poverty. Since the beginning of 2020, 23 adolescents have participated in our Café courses.
We believe our partnership with Gnu Foundation is extraordinarily relevant to the families we serve as they struggle to generate income under the oppressive weight of Covid-19.” -- Brisa & Parker, Co-founders, A Breeze of Hope
