The foundation offers direct support and also works with other foundations to assist low-income kids seeking a higher degree through scholarships. Moreover, it works hand-in-hand with other organizations to help construct schools in rural areas and supports teachers’ training to improve the education level.
The foundation also supports and internally develops different urban sustainable projects aimed at helping the youth and the elderly integrate better into the social and urban context. This is achieved by providing public spaces designed to decrease insecurity in the areas and provide social and sports opportunities for the community.
