Doña Emilia Mendoza is Co-Founder of Proyecto Mirador and has served as Executive Director since 2004. Her journey began with her assistance to the OCHO (Organization for Community Health Outreach) medical brigade that connected to Honduras through the Episcopal Church led by her husband, Padre Jose Luis Mendoza. Doña Emilia coordinated, food, meals, emergencies, staff and volunteers and managed all the complicated logistical aspects of the brigade. Highly regarded for her resourcefulness, ethics, commitment, and service to others, she showed all the signs of a natural leader.

Ejecutores are independent microentrepreneurs hired by Proyecto Mirador. Each Ejecutor has their own team composed of an Inspector, Assistant and Technicians in charge of the construction of Dos por Tres stoves in the field. The Ejecutores are trained under Mirador’s regimes and their actions are governed by the provisions and requirements of the Executive and Operational Management of the organization.

Supervisors are direct employees of the organization, responsible for evaluating and monitoring, through surveys and the use of technology, the work carried out by Proyecto Mirador in the communities we serve. They make three visits to the beneficiaries after the construction of the Dos por Tres, evaluating key aspects of adaptability and construction and reinforcing training on use and maintenance.

Area Coordinators are in charge of managing requests for construction and distribution of materials to build Dos Por Tres stoves, as well as relationships with municipalities, organizations and community leaders. They are also in charge of leading the construction teams (technicians) assigned to a given area.

Technicians are responsible for the construction of Dos por Tres stoves. Our Technicians must undergo a training and evaluation process to validate the quality of their work, thus ensuring compliance with our high construction standards.
