It’s not charity—it’s love turned
into lasting change.
What began as a personal mission in Colombia has grown into a global movement. Through Love Leads to Purpose, Marianna handcrafts goods sold in the U.S. to fund education and empowerment for young adults with disabilities in Nigeria. Every purchase supports Able to Be Extraordinary—a project proving that love and service can transform lives across continents.

THE HEART BEHIND
THE MISSION
Marianna began her journey as a lawyer in Medellín, Colombia—but her heart was called to something deeper. She left behind the courtroom to co-found Service Leads to Purpose, helping vulnerable communities through education and humanitarian aid.
Driven by the belief that love and service can transcend borders, she later founded Love Leads to Purpose. Today, Marianna handcrafts products sold in the U.S., using the proceeds to fund Able to Be Extraordinary—a project supporting young adults with disabilities in Nigeria through education and entrepreneurship. Her mission is simple, yet powerful: to do ordinary things with extraordinary love—and in doing so, transform lives across the world.
We bring humanitarian aid to the most vulnerable communities of Colombia. We are currently providing clean water and food for a school in La Guajira, and we have helped children and single mothers find their purpose with our ongoing humanitarian brigades.
