Creating a brighter future for children in Guatemala
Pura Vida has been offering scholarships in rural Guatemala since 2002. We have been working closely with parents to help them understand the long-term benefits of keeping children in school longer. These benefits are already becoming apparent we have been tracking the academic progress of our students over the last 10 years, and we are seeing a huge increase in the number of students graduating from high school and even a fair amount (25) entering university.
To provide opportunities for underprivileged children in rural Guatemala to continue their education as far as they desire.
We would hope to see more students stay in school longer. More students graduating from high school. More students completing 3 years of university. More students working in professional fields once they leave the program.
