The document discusses poverty in Panama and the impact of the Children of Darien Foundation. It notes that the Darien Gap region has nearly 60,000 indigenous and rural people, with 90% living in extreme poverty and half of children lacking access to clean water. The Children of Darien Foundation was established in 1990 to support these groups with food, water, and healthcare. It has since grown to impact over 106 communities and the lives of more than 9,000 children.
