Ana grew up in Nicaragua, surrounded by her mother’s sewing machines and design patterns. She was deeply moved by the sight of marginalized and abused women searching through garbage cans for anything useful. In her home country, she started using her skills in entrepreneurship and design to develop a social business aimed at providing work for marginalized women to restore their dignity through providing work; while working with them, loving them and sharing Christ's message she saw restoration while her business grew. Political unrest eventually brought her to Canada.
Nowadays, Ana has started a social business in cooperation with her local church, Tenth Church in Vancouver. She involves business people from the church, as well as from outside the church, to support social businesses around the globe (in Cambodia, Mexico, and Africa) that work with marginalized women. They provide support in areas such as leadership, marketing, sales, design, and other business or spiritual-related issues. In the meantime, other churches have also shown interest.
Anna loves meeting others who have similar desires. Contact her through ana.velazquez@tenth.ca
