Life in El Salvador
El Salvador is a beautiful country with lush rainforests, towering mountains, and sandy beaches.
However, the average annual household income hovers at about $8,000, and our craftsmen make $2,500 or less before going through training. It’s only through your help that we can empower them to improve their financial situations and support those closest to them.
Founded in 2010, Tools for Opportunity is a non-profit Organization whose mission is to provide woodworking tools and practical training to craftsman in developing countries in an effort to seed long-term economic-development. This helps raise the living standard in these areas through the hard work and talent of local craftsmen.
As part of our training programs, craftsmen build items that benefit their communities. Pictured are lunch tables and benches for a local school.
Tools for Opportunity is 100% volunteer-based, and every dollar and tool donated to TFO goes directly toward empowering craftsmen in Central America.
