Martin is 10 years old and is in sixth grade at the “Luis A. Martinez” school in Quito, Ecuador. He has two older siblings and one younger. Martin’s mom takes care of all the children by herself because their dad hasn’t been around for years. She is a driven worker but struggles with the daily demands of providing for her four children.
Your generosity, Richard, helps give Martin the nourishment he needs to excel both inside and outside the classroom. Martin has participated in CENIT’s homework help sessions since second grade; his other siblings also attend. During his time at these after-school sessions, Martin has worked with CENIT’s teachers and social workers and has improved both his academic and social skills. Martin dreams of becoming a doctor one day and curing sick children.
Thank you, Richard, for supporting Martin’s dreams!
