In 2024, Madre Oliva Association continued to close gaps in children’s education and contribute to food security in the impoverished rural hamlet of Nuevo Mocupe.
The program provided 25 boys and girls, ages 4 to 11, with personalized academic support, a nutritional snack, and recreational activities. Educators offered structured, nurturing environments adapted to the learning needs of each child. Parents were invited to attend sessions focused on learning support, play-based education, how to detect learning disabilities and nutrition.
Many parents reported feeling more confident in their ability to help their children succeed and more connected to other families facing similar challenges.
The project also provided food aid and medicine to the most impoverished families and individuals in the community.
Our thanks to the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joesph of Canada for their support of this project.
