NYC non-profit helping Latino and Mexican communities, one project at the time.

With your donation, we can support communities in need on both sides of the U.S. and Mexico border.

Mexico Earthquake Relief

Rebuild Mexico


With your donations, we rebuilt the homes of 72 families who lost it all and who live in Mexico’s poorest rural areas of Oaxaca, Chiapas, Morelos and Puebla.

But, there are still families that have not been able to rebuild their homes after the earthquakes.

With your help, we would like build the homes of 15 more families in Chiapas!

Who we are

Project Paz was founded in 2010 by a group of Mexican friends in NYC to help the children of our brothers and sisters affected by drug-related violence in Juarez, Mexico through fundraising efforts.

We are a group of multicultural professionals in various industries including fashion, art, design, media, marketing, finance, law and NGOs. Since its founding, Project Paz members dedicate their time to the organization on a volunteer basis.

We partner with artists, designers and 
socially-conscious brands to host unique fundraising events in NYC and make collaborations that promote our mission.

Our mission

To help Latino children, both in the U.S. and Mexico, succeed academically by facilitating access to after-school art programs that help them thrive in their communities.

Who we help

Project Paz is committed to supporting Mexican children who are at disadvantage.

In the past six years, we funded art, sports, literacy, and music after-school classes that benefited 6,150 children in Juarez.

In 2017, we are partnering with a NYC non-profit to provide literacy programs to children of Mexican immigrants in the South Bronx.

Now more than ever, we believe it is crucial to empower our children on both sides of the border to become active learners, and the future leaders of our communities.
