WHO WE ARE
GALAFIXER is the only Galapagos FBO founded and managed by galapagueños.
OUR MISSION:
To provide well paid jobs to vulnerable groups like women, single
mothers and persons with disabilities, to create empowerment
through their work, so they can feel they are a key part in our local
society.
ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES:
Living and working in a National Park and Marine Reserve, caring for
the environment and wildlife is a life style and a responsibility for
which as company we have taking the following measures to ensure
conservation of this habitat:
• Go green: with the purpose to take advantage of technology,
GALAFIXER has turned into a paperless company, keeping all its
files in the cloud and communications secure through on-line
services.
• Re-use: all of our office’s furnishings come from used
equipment to give a second chance of life for desks, shelves,
chairs, to save them from piling up as trash.
• Recycle: Galafixer uniforms are made from a recycle
polyester fabric.
GOALS:
Currently 70% of our work staff are women, giving priority to
single mothers and persons with disabilities.
Being a group of a small islands, opportunities to advance and
create businesses are very limited, therefore, in order to
continue our mission, we have co-founded Fudemgal.
A non-profit foundation to help the women of Galapagos, who
are head of their families, women entrepreneurs, women
artisans and any women in need of help.
