nother school year at Casa de Sara is in full swing and the children and families could not be happier! Our curriculum has slowly evolved to include a heavy influence of Montessori style teaching along with traditional methods. This way of teaching has proven very successful for our little school! In addition, our children participate in field trips and continue to receive health care, daily vitamins, breakfast and snacks.

Casa de Sara has become quite popular in our area of Santa Cruz. Local government officials are frequent visitors to the school. They are very impressed with what we are doing to educate the poorest of children. The required government paperwork is nearly in place for our future educational plans (a process that has taken three years due to ever-changing policies and political issues). Now, we can look forward to a future of expansion as we strive to raise the much-needed funds to purchase land and build a new facility.

Our health care education program, led by our staff doctor, remains a strong and successful program. Reaching hundreds of teenagers each year, this to-the-point and sometimes graphic program includes important information on drugs, local diseases, sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, abuses to women and children, social problems, and general health.

 

Once a month, the same subject matter is taught to the community at large. This program, which has grown each year, is very needed and nearly unheard of in our area of Bolivia.

As always, none of this would be possible without your help! We ask that you continue to support our efforts. Each small step we make translates to life changing steps for the children and young adults that benefit from our programs. Thank you for helping to make it possible.
