Our Mission

Education

We teach basic functional and grade level literacy and mathematic skills, following the curriculum that is prescribed by the Guatemalan Department of Education. Additionally, we instruct our children to use critical thinking skills, and provide education in civics, science and art.

Integration

Inclusive education, combined with individualized instruction, speech language therapy, and occupational and physical therapies when available, as well as counseling and psychosocial support, prepares our children to become active members in their communities.

Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem

Unconditional love, mutual support, honestly expressing feelings, sharing, and caring. We teach lifelong values that build self-confidence and self-esteem and a deep bond of love and trust between students, teachers and staff.

Skills for Life

We provide opportunities for students to learn cooking, gardening, carpentry and other skills that allow students to be productive members of their families and help open doors to a trade or career.
