Keysi
“My name is Keysi, and I am 10 years old. My dream is to be a painter and a soccer player and someday go to university. In my free time, I like to paint and play soccer.
The young people in my community struggle with social insecurity and drugs. I would like us to be free to fulfill our dreams and make a change in our society and community.
Through Sponsor a School, I hope we can have a bigger school that has a recreational area and a green area where we can play.”

Meet the principal
“My name is Angela, and I am the director of the José Trinidad Cabañas Basic Education Center. The biggest challenge we have as a school is trying to reduce the dropout and absenteeism rates of our students, in addition to ensuring that parents take care of their children.
The school represents a safe space for the community. My hope is that all students who graduate will continue their studies further. Migration is latent among the youth of this area, since many students leave for opportunities in other countries and do not return.
Through Sponsor a School, we hope to receive support so we can continue offering a quality education to our students.”
—Principal Angela
