MEF - The Maya Educational Foundation (MEF) was conceived and has since 1992 worked to counteract some of the imbalances witnessed by founders who lived in the Maya region, especially Chiapas, Mexico. The indigenous population groups were not only discriminated against but also not given access to political offices, nutrition, education, health care, better work situations or pay. Together with Mayas, MEF was founded. MEF addresses the educational component and offers scholarships to Maya students, especially those from remote areas, and to women who aspire to become top-notch professionals by studying hard and achieving their goals. We have many graduates who are making a difference in their communities. The support for this academic program is managed by Wendy Ewald.
