Sponsor a Student

Background

In Mexico 50% of students do not have the opportunity to continue their education beyond 6th grade. After 6th grade students are required to pay tuition and have the added costs of school uniforms, books and supplies. In addition, the number of schools is limited and many students are forced to travel outside of their community to find a school that has space for them. Transportation costs increase the financial burden and parents are hesitant to send their children alone on public transportation a significant distance away from home.
