Fundación Mana Rapa Nui

Let the Elders Stay Home

The first elder care community in Rapa Nui — where culture, dignity, and life remain rooted in the island.

There is no aged-care home in Rapa Nui.

When Elders require care, they are sent 3,700 km away to mainland Chile. Families are separated. Culture is interrupted.

The community calls this: te ngaro o te koro’uru — the disappearance of the Elders.

There is another way.

A House, Not a Hospital

A home rooted in Rapa Nui culture — where Elders live, teach, and heal within their community.
