Who We Are

Formed in 2013, we are a collaborative of Ecuadorian citizens and Expat residents of Manta, Ecuador. We focus on improving the health, welfare, education, and opportunities available to the underserved children of this rich and vibrant community. [Learn more about the children we serve here.]

​

Our Board of Directors and Program Leaders are 100% volunteer-based, which allows us to focus our financial resources towards where they matter most- directly into the programs we provide for Manta's Children. [Learn more about our Programs here.]

Our Volunteers & Supporters

The volunteers and supporters of You & Us come from all walks of life- from larger corporations to small business owners, to everything in between. No matter your professional experience, there is a way that YOU CAN HELP.

That said, we have always had many retired and former educators in our ranks. Their knowledge acts as a conduit and provides guidance on how we best serve the children of our community... and for that, we are very grateful. 

Support Us!
