The foundation and the company are domiciled in Bermuda. The Fundacion Dar Un Paso Adelante (Step-Forward Foundation) is mandated to encouraging literacy and numeracy among the Shuar children and youth in the province of Morona-Santiago. It will work with the local community and various levels of government to reach its goal. The foundation is wholly financed with 450,000 shares of the company, representing about $1 million.
