Free Finan-Entrepren. Educ.to 1000 Venez. Students

Since April to date our country has been experiencing severe socio-political confrontations. An adverse civil climate has affected our operations as it depends on schools to implement its programs. Education facilities have had to close their doors to keep their infrastructure safe while avoiding violence and attacks to people and things.  Nonetheless, against all odds, teachers and directors of the Pedro Madariaga Technical School located in Merida, one of the Andean states, have reached their school facilities to provide our financial education classes to students attending 10th and 11h grades, as part of our agreement to reach remote schools with our contnts.

By performing roles, playing financial education games and searching for creative financial solutions to every day problems, these new cohort of students have learned important financial contents while have found answers to their everyday situations.  These learning will help them reinforce the traditional education with abilities for life and concepts that will be implemented to solve financial situations in their daily lives as well as within their initial entrepreneur initiatives, considering preparation at this school aims to provide them with the practical tools them for being entrepreneurs.

We are very proud of these teachers who have turned adversity into success, as well as students who resulted benefited by the program, who have overcome adversity looking forward for a better future. Without their willingness and our donors' confidence  on our mission we had not been able to obtain these results. Our consistent donors make the difference. We are thankful to them all.
