Guagua Program
Children sponsorship to support their educational process
Whereas only with education it’s possible to access different opportunities, this program supports the educational process of Ecuadorian children, financing the improvement of infrastructure and educational management.
To participate in the program Guagua you must invest 200 Euros a year (you can also make the payments every 3 or 6 months). These funds will be used for necessary interventions in selected schools in coordination with local institutions (eg construction of bathrooms, adequacy of classrooms, teaching materials, educational activities, educational strengthening, etc.)
If you are interested to support this program please write to info@ayudadirecta.org. We will put you in contact with a child who, with your help, will have access to a better education. You will get the picture and data of the child and can maintain a relationship of correspondence. It is important to know that your support will contribute to the improvement of the whole school where your child attends. You must secure your commitment for a period of at least 3 years.
(*) Guagua means child, is a Kichwa word, the official language of the indigenous population of the Andean region. Kichwa and Kechwa (spoken in Peru) are very similar and come from the ancient language of the Incas.
