El Triunfo nursery opens

By | April 5, 2014

We have now opened a new nursery in an area called El Triunfo.  This is still in the province of Tungurahua where we were previously working.  San Pablo de Morogacho  is a very very poor community who have very little access to resources and services.

The nursery opened on March 17th 2014 and we are supporting 21 children in total.  7 of the children are under 5 and the rest of school age who attend Luis Felipe Sanchez school.  We are providing the same nursery care for the under 5’s and providing 3 meals a day to all 21 children.

This is an indigenous community who rely on the land to provide a living.  Wages are extremely low and children work in the fields with parents as there is no alternative for them.  Now that the nursery is open, the younger children are no longer spending the day in the fields but are being cared for by two of the mothers from the community.

We are continuously looking for financial support to continue to provide these services to communities living in poverty.   If you feel you can help, please get in touch,

 

thank you
