TRANSFORMING communities in Latin America

"Esto Es Lo Que Hay”: El Cazador de Tendencias presenta lo más reciente y los proyectos 2015 de Glasswing International, su propuesta, proyectos y testimonio creativo a través de una verdadera historia que hace sentido en el mundo contemporáneo. Es el Tiempo de apreciar a quienes de una manera innovadora tiene la misión de ayudar!

 

Para el Idea Catalyst, Glasswing International es ejemplo donde la vocación de transformación, mas allá de emular un proceso natural, tiene un sentido de esperanza y posibilidad para individuos y comunidades - que de otra manera no tendrían acceso a un futuro promisorio, lleno de esperanza y empoderamiento.

 

Glasswing International is an independent, non-profit organization based in San Salvador, El Salvador. Our aim is to transform communities in Central America by leveraging and mobilizing human, financial, and material resources from companies, government, and beneficiaries.

 

Glasswing: What's in a name? The Glasswing butterfly is a species native to Central America and Mexico. We see the butterfly as a symbol of positive change, and this particular species - with its clear wings - as a representation of transparency.

 

Mission:

To promote strategic social investment through the creation of 'action networks' - among businesses, foundations, governmental, and non-profit organizations - with the aim of encouraging broader societal participation in improving quality of life.

 

Vision:

To create a more integrated society in which individuals jointly assist in fostering an environment of solidarity and mutual respect, grounded in the fundamental belief in human dignity; one in which each person can harness his or her individual skills to be an agent of change.

 

 

Celina de Sola, Vice-President of Programs and Co-Founder: Celina is co-founder of Glasswing International. Prior to this, Celina worked as consultant for organizations like the Population Council and URC, and as a counselor and resource specialist for Latino immigrants in the US. Celina also spent 5 years as Director of Emergency Response for AmeriCares, leading responses in countries such as Liberia, Afghanistan, Iraq, and the tsunami in Indonesia. She holds Masters’ degrees in public health and social work from Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania, and serves on several Boards of Directors.
