Young artist inspired to become an educator

Her family is made up of four members: her Dad, her Mom, Diana, and her brother. Her mom sells vegetables and fruits in the nearby Camal market.  Her father works in construction. Both these jobs are common for parents of CENIT children as they are both relatively easy to get into with few economic or social resources. Both parents earn minimum wage and make enough to support their family, but sometimes they can’t afford to provide lunches for their children.

Diana attends after school help sessions at CENIT and is seen here with a volunteer. Her grades have markedly improved since joining the program because of the great teachers and because she longer has to worry about food. Diana says she’d like to be a teacher when she grows up, and help people in the same way she’s been helped.

Thank you, Venkat, for supporting Diana’s dreams!
