Empowering the Next Generation: KKIS and Chili Piper’s Partnership
Chili Piper’s generous support has sparked a remarkable transformation within the Tulum community through the Changemaker Program. Their partnership with KKIS has empowered our students to become agents of change, inspiring them to tackle local challenges and make a positive impact.
Thanks to Chili Piper’s funding, we were able to launch the Changemaker Program, which equipped 15 students with the tools and knowledge to identify community issues and develop solutions. One of the most impactful projects focused on addressing the pervasive garbage problem in Tulum.
Through this program, our students learned valuable skills like project management, research, and communication. They also gained a deeper understanding of the importance of environmental stewardship and community engagement.
Chili Piper’s support has been instrumental in empowering our students and building a stronger, more sustainable community. We are incredibly grateful for their generosity and commitment to making a difference.

KKIS Vision
Improving lives through education.
KKIS (Keeping Kids in School) works to build stronger communities in Playa del Carmen by eliminating financial obstacles to public education. We believe every child deserves the opportunity to learn and succeed, and we are dedicated to making education accessible and affordable for promising students in our community.
KKIS Mission
KKIS provides programming that improves graduation rates for promising students and prepares them for life success by offering financial aid, community connections, and educational support. In addition to academics, KKIS helps students develop essential language, life, and work skills to build a stronger community.
Recognizing that education is often unaffordable for many families in Mexico, we remove financial barriers to keep kids in school through generous donations from individuals and companies who share our values and vision.
