We are now ready to receive donations!

Thank you for your interest in the Heart of Yapatera project. Several friends and supporters have asked how to contribute to the project. We are pleased to announce that after presenting to the Colorado-based foundation Special Ties last week they have kindly agreed to host the Heart of Yapatera project and enable us to receive US tax-deductible donations. We are now ready to receive donations!

This will help finance Yapatera's playground, the first and only in the region and will enable us to purchase equipment for the group exercise activities such as fitballs, bands and rebounders. The playground will be built using locally available materials and employing small local business in the community.

Every donation makes a difference, and your gift will help empower women, men and children in Yapatera to take better care of their own health and happiness.

Please make checks out to Special Ties Foundation, leaving the memo blank and post to

We would like to acknowledge donors on our blog, but if you wish for your gift to remain anonymous (name and/or amount) please let us know via email.
We thank you for your continued support!
