Growing green livelihoods in Matagalpa

Rayo de Sol
Nicaragua
Nonprofit

Rayo de Sol is a nonprofit organization, working in Matagalpa, Nicaragua to promote programs in Education, Community Health, Food Security and Agroforestry. The organization has been working in this region for thirteen years, developing a strong base of community support. Rayo de Sol works with many local partners, including both public and private organizations. In this way, we promote integral, community development strategies that generate lasting impact in the communities served. Community development activities include biointensive gardening, reforestation, rain harvesting and training of local farmers to promote sustainable productive practices.

Project story

We are working to promote reforestation in Matagalpa, as well as responsible practices of soil and water conservation. This is achieved through a network of community leaders and is coordinated with local partners. Our goal is to continue to restore degraded areas in Matagalpa, through training in environmental stewardship and investments in restorative practices. Because the area where we work is characterized by high poverty levels, we also hope to create sources of income through these initiatives.
