TechnoServe (Puerto Rico)

TechnoServe is a pioneer in leveraging the power of business and markets to create sustainable pathways out of poverty. Unlike typical giveaways or subsidies, our approach uses your donations to achieve lasting impact. We empower individuals and communities to lift themselves out of poverty, helping them fulfill their dreams of a better life.

Hunger and unstable food systems. Environmental loss. Unemployment and inequality. The root cause of poverty may look quite similar from country to country. But the key to helping families lift themselves out of poverty is unique in each community. From extreme weather events to political scenarios to market dynamics, these families don’t just need partners, they need experts in the local context.

At TechnoServe, over 90% of our staff are from the countries where they work. This local expertise allows us to apply world-class analysis within the local context, designing and delivering tailored interventions. Our embedded approach addresses real adversity faced by real people, wherever they are.
