LIFE-CHANGING REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH, EDUCATION, SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOOD, AND HUMANITARIAN SERVICES. LEARN MORE:
Family Planning
The first and crucial step towards empowering women is to offer them the means to control their own fertility.
Education
Once families gain control of their fertility, they can concentrate on giving their children the best possible future through schooling.
Sustainable Livelihood
Our low-impact rural development and ecological agriculture initiatives serve a dual purpose – to preserve local ecosystems and promote self-employment for rural populations.
Humanitarian Aid
Venezuela is in crisis: its lower income people are tragically vulnerable to the lack of public services and widespread scarcity of even common medicines.
BIG GOALS, BIG IMPACT
WHAT’S HAPPENING
In this interview with Czech journalist Veronika Perkova, Steven Bloomstein, the co-founder and president of the Turmiquire Foundation, and one of the only men in an organization run by women on the ground, talks about reproductive health and family planning, the needs of Venezuelan families and the global fight for women’s empowerment.
Nature Solutionaries
We are distributing rare Durian seedlings to the farmers in the valleys where we work. The lucrative Durian, an unusual south Asian fruit, has the potential to lift the economic profile of low-income campesino farmers and foster long-term tree farming in the region. Reforestation with tree crops can help conserve the environment and mitigate global climate change.
Durian Nation
In March 2023, Foundation President Steven Bloomstein was a featured speaker at this Harvard symposium. It was an inspiring event in which we shared our experience and knowledge providing family planning and reproductive health services to low-income communities in northeastern Venezuela where there is enormous unmet need.
