A foundation rooted in Tola

The Fundación Para la Promoción de la Educación Técnica y Vocacional El Limón — FunLimón — was formed in May 2007 to benefit the people of the Tola region of Nicaragua. The mission of the foundation is charitable and educational in scope.

We drive community development by offering quality, affordable educational and vocational training to youths and adults, along with athletic and recreational opportunities. Each year we undertake increasingly ambitious projects to benefit Tola's residents in a sustainable manner.
