During the pandemic they realized many of their students were not continuing their education due to lack of resources. This lead them to open up learning centers to meet the needs of children's education.
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

Joey moved in our Cedros community about 2 years ago. We invited her to come to our learning center after learning she was not in school and had not been in school since third grade due to bullying. Since then she has been enrolled in our center and has had enrichment activities on a daily basis. She recently has gone to Los Angeles, California to get surgeries for her facial cleft. Currently she is back in Tijuana, and continuing services in our center. Thanks to sponsors like you we have been able to provide therapy sessions, music classes and craft activities. We are excited to continue in this journey with Joey, subscribe to our email list to get updates on our learning centers and on Joey!
