We offer rural Ecuadorian students funding to continue their secondary education, which is not free in Ecuador.  For the 2008-2009 school year, we are supporting 27 students, and we hope to increase that number next year.

We have also offered Ecuadorian youth the chance to participate in experiential education programs--opportunities that allow them to realize dreams they never imagined would be possible. If you offer experiential education programs and are interested in including rural Ecuadorian students, please let us know.

For about $300, you can make it possible for an Ecuadorian student to attend secondary school for one year.  If you would like to sponsor a student to help him or her continue studying, please contact us or make a donation.

"This trip, this experience, was the most important in my life.  I never thought I would realize this dream.  Thanks to you I've learned about another culture, another country, and I've shared my culture with others.  They, likewise, have learned a lot, and this is something we will never forget."
