Things are Getting Better for Roberto

Roberto Lema is 8 years old, and is a fourth grader at the José Maria Urbina School in Quito.   When Roberto started attending CENIT he had a pretty rough home situation, but both he and his parents have received classes at CENIT and things have improved considerably thanks to Roberto’s better behavior and his parents’ new parenting skills.

His dad works in the market helping to carry customer purchases, and his mom walks around the same market selling fruits. Between the two of them, they barely earn minimum wage, and money is tight.

Roberto’s favorite subject is math, and he’s working hard to get better grades in class. His teachers say his behavior is improving in the classroom too, which is sure to help.

Having a healthy lunch is really important to Roberto’s continued behavioral and academic improvement, and something he wouldn’t be able to count on without CENIT, and Alison’s generosity. Thank you so much, Alison!
