The Sergio Paiz Foundation, also known for its acronym Funsepa, is a non-for-profit organization created aiming to provide technology that improves the educational system and contributes to the alleviation of poverty in Guatemala. We aim to be the leading organization, pioneer and innovative in the scope of education through technology, in order to impact and transcend Guatemala’s development.

FUNSEPA’s mission is to improve the nation’s social and economic development through the innovative use of technology as an effective educational tool for youth. Perhaps one of the most significant factors contributing to Guatemala’s failing education system is the severe lack of technology. Less than 20% of people in Guatemala have access to the internet which means children cannot connect to resources on the world wide web.

The program called, Technology for Education, was created with an innovative vision, focused in change. Its goal is to establish a self-sustainable program that is capable of continuously providing used computers to all the public schools in the country.
