Mission

Since its inception in 1991, Fotokids (originally under our prior fiscal sponsor, the San Carlos Foundation) has utilized photography, graphic design and media technology as tools for self-expression, creativity, leadership and vocational training experience with hundreds of youths from poor rural and urban areas. The majority of our students, in addition to learning employable skills with Fotokids, receive scholarships to study in formal schools from the level of primary education through university.

Fotokids programs continue to focus on job skills that set our students apart from the 200,000 young people entering the workforce every year, increasing their chances of employment in a competitive job market. Portfolios created by the students include work done for actual clients, such as editorial and event photography, designing and photographing commercial catalogs, and creating web pages. Guatemala City remains the hub for all our programs throughout Guatemala, and all our staff are graduates of Fotokids. We operate an intern program for teenage students, providing them with on-the-job training and real-world experience working with clients. In addition to vocational training, Fotokids provides, through Fundacion de Ninos Artistas de Guatemala, counseling, tutoring, and experience working with international professionals in photography and design. Fotokids continues to offer nutritious meals, transportation, and psychosocial support, ensuring students are not only educated but also supported holistically. In-person classes, workshops, and exhibitions remain central to our curriculum and impact.
