Primeros Pasos & IAHA The Inter-American Health Alliance (IAHA) is a U.S.-based 501(c)3 non-profit that was started by former Primeros Pasos volunteers to support our operations. IAHA’s status as a tax-exempt organization allows U.S. donors to receive a tax discount on their donation to Primeros Pasos. IAHA fundraises for Primeros Pasos’ operations, provides organizational support, and coordinates donations of supplies. IAHA also works closely with other charitable U.S.-based groups and universities to develop sustainable relationships that help support the work of Primeros Pasos. IAHA is entirely volunteer-run, which means that the maximum amount of funds raised go directly to Primeros Pasos in Guatemala.
