Helping Puerto Peñasco in Crisis
Helping Puerto Peñasco in Crisis has been formed by committed individuals from both sides of the border to help the community of Puerto Peñasco during this unprecedented and uncertain time.
The Need
Unlike in the United States, public school in Mexico is not free. Beginning in high school students have to pay for registration, tuition and fees, books, uniforms and transportation. Students in younger grades must pay for all school supplies, transportation and special activities.
In addition to these direct educational expenses, families face a variety of other barriers preventing their children from attending school and succeeding academically. Barriers can include a lack of academic support in the home, as well as the inability to meet basic needs such as food, shelter and access to medical care.
Sponsor a Student
As little as $35 a month can put a child on a path to a better future through education.
