A non-profit organization serving the Panamanian community and metropolitan area of Washington, D.C. since 1992. Fundacion Panama (The Panama Foundation) chartered in Washington, D.C. was established with the purpose of alleviating poverty, creating social awareness of other's needs, and providing monetary assistance to social programs in the Republic of Panama and Washington, D.C.  In addition, the organization promotes cultural diversity and a cross cultural understanding among people from the U.S., Panama and Latin America. 

“We believe that the
most effective way to improve the standard of living for victims of drug,
alcohol, neglect and domestic violence is through support offered in an array
of services, resources, and education. 
Through our events we try to raise as much money as possible for those
non-profit agencies that will provide a positive spin on the lives of the less
fortunate.”

Milka de Descaire, President 2003 - 2005
