Programs

Our programs are built to strengthen individuals’ relationships with themselves, others, and the Divine which we believe can be achieved through nurturing the mind, body, and soul of an individual. We strengthen the mind through our education program, Libros for Niños, the body through our nutrition initiative, Lunchadores, and the soul through our play program, Sol Play.

Each program is defined by a series of rotating projects intended to empower local educators to better meet student needs and create a safer school environment that is conducive to healthy, learning, and play. Currently, our projects focus on meeting the needs of four public schools – Escuela Ignacio Gutiérrez, Escuela El Coco, Escuela Playa Hermosa, Escuela Bernardo Gutiérrez.
