Holá Donors!
We want to extend our sincere gratitude for all your continued support and help towards supporting the street children here in Quito. To date, we have raised over $60,000 with your help since 2007. Every day UBECI staff and volunteers from around the world, travel to various markets where they work with local children in which the children may receive help both before and after school.
Christmas is a time of giving, love, compassion, and peace. It's a time to remember the people who are less fortunate than we are. The street children in Ecuador have very few opportunities to break the cycle of poverty that they were born into. UBECI works to break this cycle through support and education.
Last Christmas we were able to teach the children of Quito basic academic, social, and hygiene skills needed to flourish in society. Your donation went directly to purchase supplies, clothes, and medical assistance along with providing financial support for the program activities. In addition, this campaign also provided a Christmas celebration and a present for each child in the market.
Thank you for your time and your continued support. We hope to hear from you soon!
