Preventing Teen Pregnancy

Building Safe Communities: Our Efforts in Teen and Child Pregnancy Prevention

Dear Donors,

We are thrilled to share the progress in our sexual education efforts aimed at children and teenagers. Recently, we conducted a pregnancy prevention workshop in one of the neediest communities of Cabo San Lucas, specifically in Caribe Bajo.

In collaboration with the Department of Health, Sarahuaro Foundation's specialized team of expert professionals in psychology has addressed age-appropriate sexuality topics for children ages 9 to 16, providing vital information and practical tools to help them understand their development and stay safe. Additionally, we extended this workshop to the adults responsible for raising these children, covering communication about sexuality with their kids, as well as the detection of potential abuse and the prevention of domestic violence.

This workshop succeeded, but we need your ongoing support to reach more communities. Your generosity is essential to maintaining and expanding these programs, ensuring that more children and teenagers receive the education and support they need for healthy and safe development.

We deeply appreciate your commitment to the Sarahuaro Foundation and your contribution to this noble cause.

Let's Continue Together in Preventing Teen and Child Pregnancy

With gratitude,

We are excited to share an update on the successful implementation of our Preventing Children and Teen Pregnancy Program within the community. It's inspiring to witness children actively engaging with the wide array of topics covered, which fosters a comprehensive understanding of sexual education and ultimately helps in avoiding unintended pregnancies.

Thus far, a total of 1302 students ranging from 5th and 6th grade up to the last year of high school have directly benefited from our Program. This extensive outreach highlights the significance and impact of our initiatives in imparting crucial knowledge and awareness to the youth.

Through collaboration with government agencies dedicated to community welfare in this field, we have conducted workshops aimed at reducing the incidence of pregnancies in children and adolescents in this state, which unfortunately has the highest rate of pregnancies among children in Mexico.

At the core of our workshop sessions is the goal of raising awareness about the risks associated with pregnancy and contracting sexually transmitted infections. Furthermore, we provide a platform for children to critically examine cultural norms, challenging aspects such as sexism and promoting equality.

Without your support, it would be impossible to carry out this program. We are deeply grateful for acknowledging and endorsing the importance of implementing our initiative. Thank you, generous donor.
