"When we start to act hope is everywhere. So instead of looking for hope look for action. Then the hope will come."
-Greta Thunberg
The NAYELI Flame
​
​
NAYELI’s logo, a flame of varying intensity, represents the latent passion for positive change that we believe exists within everyone.
​
Our underlying mission is to cultivate this passion and have it grow within and among our youth leaders, staff and board, and with others who support our quest for grassroots social change.
​
The word "nayeli" is of Zapotec indigenous origin which means "open".
​
Our organization takes action to open doors of opportunity, intercultural awareness, and service for all of our Youth Leaders, international volunteers, and staff.
