The Mission of El Viento Foundation came about in much the same way El Viento, as an organization, was created – through a vision and through networks of individuals, corporations, and foundations who shared that vision.

Our mission is to provide children and young adults with opportunities for success in life as responsible citizens through a long-term relationship based upon: 

Mutual Trust and Respect, Exemplary Character, Skills Building, Leadership, Teamwork, and Learning  

The success of El Viento Foundation will be measured, over time, by the happiness and fulfillment of our participants.
