| General explanation attachment | FORM 990 EZ PART III, PRIMARY PURPOSEResplandece seeks long-term solutions to the poverty and violence cycle that affects Guatemala, focusing on ways to provide holistic care for youth-at-risk and economic opportunity for underprivileged areas.FORM 990 EZ PART III, Exempt Purpose Achievement Line 28Resplandece works within at-risk communities to identify youth-at-risk that are not enrolled in school. Our educational programs are tailored for children that have previously dropped out of school, been expelled, or never studied. We combine curriculum and tutoring to deliver an educational program that meets these children where they are. 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 29Resplandece operates a psychology and therapy as a program for youth-at-risk. Many of these children suffer emotional trauma that impacts the limbic system of the brain and provokes anxiety. Children need support to heal past wounds and achieve balance in their mental health. Our psychologists work with youth to identify trauma, heal wounds, and enable them to overcome their obstacles. FORM 990 EZ PART III, Exempt Purpose Achievement Line 30Resplandece provides mentorship for children that live in at-risk communities. These youth need guidance to navigate the challenges they face. Our mentors support youth that live in extreme risk of drugs, delinquency, and gangs. We help youth understand the consequences of their life choices and cultivate a system of values that will nurture their wellbeing and future actions. FORM 990 EZ PART III, Exempt Purpose Achievement Line 31Resplandece supports a safe home for children that have suffered from abandonment, neglect, and dire circumstances. Resplandece 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 and supplies in the home. Total program Cost = $7400 |
