About Us
We are a non-profit corporation founded in 2014, based in California. We provide medical and nutritional services to children in Ecuador, who would not otherwise be able to receive those necessary services.
We are affiliated with Fundación Rostros Felices, an Ecuadorian non-profit that conducts surgeries around Ecuador for over 25 years. We also work with Hospital del Rio, main hospital in Cuenca, Ecuador.

cost efficient charity
For every $1 that is contributed to Helping Kids in Ecuador the children receive $5 to $10 of benefits.
This is possible because the doctors donate their services for free and as a result, they are by far our largest donors.
Helping Kids in Ecuador pays for supplies, medicine, transportation, lodging and other out of pocket expenses.
As a result, our average cost of 95% of our life changing surgeries, procedures and treatments is approximately $500. Additionally, since all of our people are volunteers working out of their homes our operating expenses are less than 1% of donations received.
