Who we are:
Spreading hope. Building resilience. Fostering a movement of support and kindness. The Cuenca Foundation—formerly the Cuenca Soup Kitchen—is volunteers and supporters united in commitment and effort to address the hardships faced by vulnerable families and individuals in Cuenca – providing them resources for nourishment, education, and health as they work toward self-sufficiency.
At 27%, Ecuador has the second-highest rate of chronic child malnutrition in Latin America and the Caribbean.
We help people break the cycle of poverty by addressing hunger first, empowering people to improve their lives.
