what we do

A wise Belizean philosopher once said, “Okra, okra, full basket”, which roughly translates to, "little by little, if we keep working, we will get there".  Reflecting this sentiment, International Friends of Belize recognizes that by working together we can assist and empower those who are working for positive change in Belize.

International Friends of Belize is committed to improving the education, health, and environment of Belizean communities through educational scholarships and small project grants.
