Matt on Fotokids: My first encounter with Nancy and Fotokids came nearly 15 years ago when I spent a week volunteering in Santiago Atitlan. I was blown away by the transformative impact the program has on the lives of these children. Over the years, I’ve come to understand how photography and creativity foster a sense of self-worth and develop a growth mindset that paves the way for resilience, collaboration, and the ability to build a better future.
This program is living proof of the value of developing a “Growth Mindset”. Personally, I’ve always had an interest and passion for photography and creativity, and the most rewarding thing I do is with Fotokids, where I see firsthand the life-altering changes that the team brings to the children.
