Project Report | Oct 7, 2026
Nuevo semestre / New Semester

By Jeannette Ruiz | Project Leader

Regresamos de las vacaciones con energías renovadas para empezar este nuevo semestre. Durante los meses de agosto a octubre nos han  invitado a participar en 21 ferias de servicio, universidades y agencias en diferentes pueblos de la isla promoviendo el trabajo y servicio de Casa sin Fronteras. Ha sido una experiencia muy grata poder encontrarnos con tantas personas solidarias y generosas deseosas de compartir lo bueno de las comunidades.  También nos llenó de orgullo encontrar a algunos de los empresarios formados por nuestro Emprende Academy ofreciendo sus productos en algunas de las actividades.  Un evento al que fuimos invitados por Colmena66 fue el Boricua Emprende Fest 2026 en el Centro de Convenciones de Puerto Rico, donde pudimos tener una mesa de información para poder divulgar nuestro trabajo y llegar a un público más amplio y emprendedor.

El 3 de octubre iniciamos un nuevo ciclo de talleres de Emprende Academy con un grupo de participantes diverso en edad y en ideas de negocio.  Por primera vez, además de los 18 emprendedores, tenemos un grupo de 8 niños de varias edades, hijos de los participantes.  Hemos creado un espacio para ellos también, de manera que sus padres puedan aprovechar esta experiencia de aprendizaje con la tranquilidad de que sus hijos están bien atendidos. 

Damos gracias a los auspiciadores de este nuevo ciclo de Emprende Academy, el Instituto de Cultura Puertorriqueña y el National Endowment for the Arts. Y sobre todo a ustedes, nuestros colaboradores que hacen posible nuestro trabajo.

We returned from vacation with renewed energy to start this new semester. During the months of August to October, we have been invited to participate in 21 service fairs, universities, and agencies in different towns of the island promoting the work and services of Casa sin Fronteras. It has been a very pleasant experience to be able to meet so many supportive and generous people eager to share the good of the communities. We were also proud to find some of the entrepreneurs trained by our Emprende Academy offering their products in some of the activities. We were invited by Colmena66 to the Boricua Emprende Fest 2026 at the Puerto Rico Convention Center, where we were able to have an information table and disseminate our work and reach a wider and more entrepreneurial audience.

On October 3rd we started a new cycle of Emprende Academy workshops with a group of participants diverse in age and business ideas. For the first time, in addition to the 18 entrepreneurs, we have a group of 8 children of various ages, sons and daughters of the participants. We have created a space for them too, so that their parents can take advantage of this learning experience with the peace of mind that their children are well taken care of. 

We thank the sponsors of this new cycle of Emprende Academy, the Institute of Puerto Rican Culture and the National Endowment for the Arts. And above all, to you, our collaborators who make our work possible.
