Iniciativa has managed to establish the safe home with local partners in Guatemala to provide a loving family for children that have no suitable alternative. Support goes towards childcare, supplies in the home or relocation expenses. FORM 990 EZ PART III, Exempt Purpose Achievement Line 28Iniciativa works within at-risk communities to identify youth-at-risk that are not enrolled in school or lack the resources to continue education. The educational programs we support are tailored for children that have previously dropped out of school, been expelled, never studied or suffer financial hardship. We combine curriculum and tutoring to deliver an educational program that meets these children where they are. We provide high school scholarships for those that would not be able to cover the financial cost. This approach is the best way to prevent kids from choosing street life over their education. FORM 990 EZ PART III, Exempt Purpose Achievement Line 28(cont)Part of support to youth in the community includes comprehensive sexual education for youth and counseling or access to contraceptive methods to help with their family planning goals. |
