What we do
Education
We support programs that advance women out of poverty and lack of knowledge—such as Soymas Chile —through vocational training, entrepreneurship pathways, and biopsychosocial support.
Research
We study the systemic issues that keep women in poverty—lack of financial literacy, women’s health, barriers to career equality, and more—so we can build solutions that change the future.
Education
Education Flagship Program – Fundación Soymas Chile:
Through U.S. fundraising, Soymas Foundation enables Soymas Chile to empower adolescent mothers to break cycles of poverty and build lives of dignity. Our flagship program delivers:
Education & Vocational Training
Equipping young mothers with the skills to build independent futures.
Biopsychosocial Support
Providing mental health, childcare, and community resources that enable women to continue their education.
Entrepreneurship Pathways
Helping women launch businesses, secure jobs, and create sustainable income.
Our Impact
Since 2007, Soymas Chile’s programs have transformed lives and communities across Chile.
Research
Project Spotlight: Women's Health Endometriosis Research
Pending funding approval, Soymas Foundation is prepared to launch a study on endometriosis. This initiative will empower women in the U.S. to explore how their insights and impact can be applied across our mission, while also creating awareness among the mothers participating in our flagship educational program, Fundación Soymas Chile.
The Challenge
Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women worldwide, causing unpredictable “flares” that disrupt school, work, and family life. Limited research leaves many without answers or effective care.
Our Approach
We plan a 24-month, patient-driven study where women will log daily symptoms and lifestyle factors. This data is expected to reveal flare patterns and provide healthcare providers with new tools for proactive care.
Why It Matters
Health barriers like endometriosis limit a woman’s ability to learn, lead, and thrive. Advancing this research means investing in women’s potential across generations.
Our Impact
Once funded, this study will collect daily, real-world data from diverse women to drive evidence-based solutions for endometriosis.
