Mission

Our mission is to provide rainforest children with educational opportunities. We do this by bringing together people from a wide range of backgrounds to partner for economic development and cultural sustainability at the community level. At the root is our desire to help prepare the next generation for their work -- to be stewards of their Kishwa culture and their Amazonian rainforest environment.

AlliancExchange (The Alliance for Cultural and Economic Exhange) is a 501(c)3 founded in 2003 and based in Somerville, Massachusetts. We are dedicated to promoting a culturally diverse, compassionate world.  In order to foster mutually beneficial global cultural and economic exchange, we promote partnerships among developed and developing communities.

We have begun our work in Ecuador.
