Working in collaboration with Faith in Change Publishing and Ana Maria Ltd., we aim to create seeds of light and hold the intention of planting them within the hearts and minds of humanity. Ana Maria Santuario, our Founder, is busy creating free resources that she donates to The Self-Help Library. As we grow towards our first national call for change with our Advocacy and Social Wellbeing Projects, we encourage you to engage with the content and to support a wave of positive change by signing every petition, and by reading thoroughly through the Data Collection Projects. We can appreciate that donating your voice and energy can become enormously powerful, so for the time being, while we take time to prove our value to you all, please take out your ‘pen’ instead of your wallet. Help us to help everyone by standing together as one body we will now call, The People of The UK.
One especially vulnerable demographic we are presently advocating for, slowly, determinably, is that of untreated Dual-Diagnosis NHS Patients in the UK. Legislation dictates certain patient rights under The Mental Health Act (1983), many are flippantly neglected and fail to be upheld on behalf of the more vulnerable. Complaining doesn’t appear to affect change, the process of complaint seems to protect the system and its staff more than it does the service user, and together we aim to prove it! By collecting national quantitative data, discoverable only in the richness of human story and experience, we intend to expose reality as it truly is, otherwise the acute unbearable suffering of patients with untreated comorbid and complex psychosis will remain unidentified and untreated. That is the very reason we created the Unsafe Person Report and Unsafe Discharge Report, as well as a memorial for those already lost, to safeguard this vulnerable demographic from the designated national body designed and paid to save every patient’s sanity and physical life, The NHS.
We live in a precarious time, our government keep insisting on closing hospitals, including vital A&E services, maternity wards, psychiatric facilities and more, and that’s simply what I notice in the increasingly populated capital city of England, London. By doing so, are they creating a situation which we may label clearly as, ‘Normalised Institutionalised Negligence’, and/or ‘Gross Negligent Manslaughter’, in cases when said negligence leads to death? Does a reliance and overemphasis on paperwork lead to a full-time neglect of high-quality patient treatment and care, that which predictably results in truly lawful outcomes? What do the statistics say, because we cannot imagine that they reflect reality? Surely, if anyone in government knew the pain lived by carers and untreated patients in The UK they would have raised the emergency flags by now? Do they read about us in a statistic somewhere? Do they even know our stories? Our pain?
This is where we are beginning, with the exposure of the undue stress and perpetual pain of patients suffering from an uninterrupted, mislabeled, mistreated/commonly untreated, complex mental health decline. We are counting the damages that are slipping through the net of misconduct and misfortune. As we collect data for recurring unlawful injustices within the areas of physical health, social care, and more, we take a step towards exposing more than we likely bargained for. But we are ready for the truth, we just hope parliament are too!
‘One flower is beautiful, it is truth, yet why is it that a field of them becomes something to change you, something to make you stop and stare in awe of? Together, we can build a world of beauty, magic and love, one that calls others home to it; alone, we risk remaining as unseen as that one flower, held within a vase in a dark room. Let us build anew together, or at least get the sowing of seeds started in this lifetime. I have partnered with Faith in Change Publishing because they value the bigger picture, they value a seed sown in the present, even where its sprouting may not come for another decade. Faith in Change are investing in humanity with every pound spent on projects and collaborative partnerships funded with the help of The Foundation.’
– Ana Maria Santuario, Founder, Educator, Thinker and Writer (2023).
If you feel that you have a project that can seed and grow compassion, health, self-empowerment or kindness, do think about collaborating with Faith in Change Publishing via The Project Pathway or the Semi-Self-Publishing route.
What we do
We fund and support the creation of education programmes, learning resources, and various self-development kits, all informed by the latest innovations and knowledge, as well as ancient wisdom. The Self-Help Library at anamaria.org, it is just the first project we have chosen to fuel (with sweat equity), since we believe that one way towards the hearts and minds of the children is via their safe and stable parents. Developing online platforms focused on Advocacy and Social Wellbeing are a primary focus, since global-scale impact is what we’re looking to achieve.
We intend to support entrepreneurs and professionals of all kinds across the globe, specifically, along their own journeys of responsible and ethical workmanship. Unique business modelling, ethical consumerism, sustainable and moral creation processes, these all lay at the heart of our ethos as a Foundation. We aim to grow sustainable ties among the publishing and production world, and to embrace a life of artistry, innovative conceptual development, and risk taking, with new and exciting ventures at the forefront, especially when they support the changes the world is seeking.
We aim to engage the global public and maintain a legitimate ‘Education for All’ ethos. We hope to listen to what the world wants and needs, and respond accordingly. There is an era of change upon us, education must catch up to the present, as should medical, nutritional and psychological infrastructures. Human energy is not infinite, but Divine Energy is, and when we embrace our place within the whole, we become a part of infinity at work, and enter a realm without beginnings or endings. Taking responsibility for our position within time and space is what inspired The Longevity Fund, as we plan for a world beyond our own lifetimes.
‘In place and time we find our part, in space and time we find the whole; there is only oneness in the way we work, and whether the things we do help those in need now, or in 50 years, or even a millennia, we live contently with the knowledge that we have served the greater good. Long-term impact is our aim, as is the planned endurance of creation, systematic development, and an ongoing and mindful awareness of equality of access.’
– Hannah Sim, Chief Executive and Co-Founder of Faith in Change Publishing (2023).

‘We work with, ‘A Leg Up Ethos’, meaning we try to support the creation of self-sustaining business entities that rely only on their own success; as well as education platforms that grow, foster and nurture the soul to become the self.’
– Ana Maria Santuario, Founder and Writer (2023).
‘The Ana Maria Foundation creates by way of using The Past as a reference point, while simultaneously identifying needs discoverable in The Present; we meander alongside a view and open mind of what this will provide and uphold within The Future. Flexibility, patience, mind-heart harmony, all required as we craft a space for whole-world safety, creative expansion and change. We, as a growing collective of visionaries, are an enigma without walls, a sentient body dwelling outside of the cage concept. We appreciate that we are merely a grain of time within an infinite universe, but that this makes us no less valuable when we account for our place as being a part of the whole.’
– Ana Maria Santuario, Patron of The Arts, Founder of The Ana Maria Foundation.

Ana Maria Santuario is developing as we speak…
Whenever a person submits an application to work with The Foundation, Ana Maria always has the final say. At present, she is working on three projects already underway with Faith in Change Publishing, therefore, The Ana Maria Foundation is unable to accept applications for funding requests and new partnerships at this time. In the meantime, we do accept monetary donations as well as donations of service. Anamaria.org is a space full of light, only expanding outwards, please do help it grow or help another in need of a little tender loving care by referring them to The Self-Help Library. For now, create, plan, brainstorm, free-flow with your writing and art, until the time is right to connect with us on a professional level.
The path ahead may be uncertain, but when we walk together we are safe, taken care of, and have a better chance of traversing The Unknown.
Walk with us and see where it leads…
