Everyday the children living in this barrio face instability, violence, exploitation, abuse, and crippling poverty that excludes them from the educational system. Parents of these children make around $30 to $50 a month and an education is the pathway out of poverty for their children. HOW WE BRING HOPE Every parent wants to see their child rise above poverty and experience the fullness of life through education. We believe a faith-based education changes a life, a family, a community, and a future of a country. We blend academics, social and spiritual growth together to help vulnerable children affected by poverty mature and transcend what is most likely a generational legacy of poverty. We prioritize education, safety, integrity, caring and a growing, lifelong relationship with God. As we provide a brighter future, academically, and spiritually, the growth of the children ripples throughout their family and community. HOW YOU CAN BE A GIVER OF HOPE A $30 a month or $360 a year investment provides a brighter future academically and spiritually for a child who will look to the future with hope. By supporting Academia de Gracia, you ... ​Help a child attend a Christian school where they can grow spiritually as well as academically. Save children from walking 2 miles through a violent environment to the nearest public school. Provide a school uniform for a child, whose parents can't afford the $10 required uniform to attend public school. Give hope to parents who dream of seeing their child rise above the generational legacy of poverty.
