Mission
Fotokids provides young people from low-income communities in Guatemala with education in photography, design, and digital media, together with scholarships and the support services needed to stay in school and enter the workforce.
Program accomplishments
- Fotokids funds and oversees media arts education and vocational training for young people from low-income communities in Guatemala City, carried out by Guatemalan registered nonprofit Fundacin de Nios Artistas de Guatemala. The program combines photography, graphic design, and digital media with practical career preparation. All five staff are Fotokids graduates who have worked professionally in media; each serves in both an instructional and an administrative role and mentors students facing poverty and community violence. During FY2025, 37 students participated in 86 classes and workshops. Students built professional portfolios through five assignments for outside clients in editorial and event photography, commercial catalog work, and web and digital design, and nine teenage students completed internships or supervised work placements. A new partnership with Ingeniera y Representaciones, S.A. (INRESA) provided nine professional workshops for 14 advanced students and three staff members at INRESAs studio in Zone 4, with studio access and advanced equipment donated in kind. To remove barriers to attendance, students received lunch and round-trip transportation twice weekly, and 10 students received psychosocial support.Expenses $97,267 · grants $18,800
- Fotokids funds and oversees a second media arts and community support in Santiago Atitln, Guatemala, The program uses photography and digital design to build creative expression, technical skill, and professional experience. During FY2025, 50 students participated. They completed six workshops led by three Guatemalan and five international photography and design professionals, and delivered three projects for local clients. Student work was exhibited internationally during the year. Two students were selected for the Head On Photo Festival in Sydney, Australia, where one was named a finalist; the work was also shown digitally and in additional Australian cities. Fifty prints were featured in the Bronx Documentary Centers Latin American Foto Festival in New York City. Twenty-three prints were included in What Makes Me Click!, a childrens photography exhibition co-curated by the Chennai Photo Biennale Foundation and the Childrens Photography Archive (UK) and shown at the Government Museum in Chennai, India. To sustain participation amid economic hardship, the families of participating students received food baskets each month throughout the year, approximately 600 distributions during FY2025.Expenses $173,495 · grants $28,200
- Fotokids funds full scholarships for formal education, from primary school through university, for students enrolled. A full scholarship covers required tuition and related school costs, removing the financial barrier that most often ends a students education. During FY2025, Fotokids added 37 students who had participated in the program for more than one year, bringing total recipients to 87. That figure represents the full unduplicated enrollment: every student Fotokids served during the year also received a scholarship. Of the 87 recipients, 42 attended primary school, 40 attended secondary school, and 5 attended university. All 82 primary and secondary recipients advanced to the next grade level. No recipients reached secondary graduation during FY2025 given current cohort composition; the five university recipients were already enrolled. The FY2025 expansion was supported in part by a $50,000 grant from The Palmer Foundation.Expenses $134,833 · grants $50,000
