Ecuador
Where We Work
The founders of Kovê International have lived or worked in Ecuador for over 3 decades. We have a great love for the people and culture of this beautiful Andean country and together with our in-country partners are helping people to live the abundance that they imagine.

Many of our service trips, construction projects and medical clinics and trainings have been in underserved communities in Guayaquil. We choose communities where there is strong leadership to collaborate with, who are already doing great things but need more resources.
​
In Quito, our efforts focus on helping people in their most vulnerable moments, being the bridge to resources to keep them from living on the street. This can be in the form of short-term housing stipends, transportation costs until the first paycheck arrives, buying necessary equipment for their small business, or car kits for immigrants with small immediate supplies and a pamphlet of organizations that can counsel them on their rights and how to connect to resources.
This vibrant country boasts beautiful vistas, string communities, and hardworking people. However, it also struggles with Narco-trafficking, corruption, and persistent poverty in some regions.
