What is the ASEA Advancing Life Foundation?

ASEA wanted to give back in ways that would make a difference. Their mission is, “To break cycles of poverty, abuse, and suffering”. Their vision is, “To empower communities and people who face disadvantages with sustainable opportunities for education, health, and relief from natural disasters, poverty, and abuse.”



Current Projects

Currently, ASEA is working on raising money for a few projects. One is they are collecting donations for the Ecuador Earthquake Relief fund. They have met their goal of raising $20,000 to give to the people of Ecuador.


Another current project that ASEA is working on is to help build the Ecuador Vocational Center. They currently have raised $37,646 of their $100,000 goal. The village ASEA is wanting to assist is Cotacachi, Ecuador. Eighty-seven percent of the population is living in poverty, and access to education is a challenge. With the money donated, CHOICE and ASEA Advancing Foundation will build a vocational center that will serve over 1500 families.


There is an additional opportunity to join ASEA leaders as they travel to Ecuador in July of 2017. Participants will spend 7 days working, learning and celebrating with community members. They building they will help create will create opportunities for generations to come.

Past Projects

Recently in Salt Lake City, Utah, ASEA held their first Have an Impact, Make a Difference Day. They helped a local shelter by hosting a clothing drive as well as donating canned food and prepared meals. ASEA’s team altogether volunteered almost 300 hours of their time.


Perhaps their biggest service up to date was the La Concepcion Mexico Expedition. In 2016, 35 volunteers travelled to Mexico to make a difference in the lives of people who lived in Concepcion. With that many volunteers, in just 5 days, they were able to complete 1 years worth of work. They completed 10 water cisterns, 16 stoves, and 5 chicken coops. Overall they made over 400 villagers happy and excited to have clean water and a place they could prepare their food.  To learn more about ASEA’s Mexico Expedition, watch the video below.
