How We Help

  • Each year, Fundacion Mama Ties allocates approximately AWG 200,000 in grants to support high-impact mental health initiatives and organizations across Aruba. Funding is directed to qualified organizations or initiatives that demonstrate clear, measurable impact on individuals, their families, and the advancement of mental health research and care capabilities on Aruba.

We provide long-term operational and financial support, including the provision of facilities, to help partners expand capacity, improve quality of care, and deliver high-impact services.

  • A critical part of our work is engaging the broader community to help strengthen mental well-being. To support this, Fundacion Mama Ties regularly hosts community events, conferences, and research-sharing initiatives that raise awareness, encourage dialogue, and strengthen collaboration across Aruba’s mental health ecosystem.
