Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Our only problem is funding. We achieve everything possible but could do so much more with proper funding.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Elementry Education
Many children here have dropped or not attended school for financial reasons. We are teaching them basic education to get them up to level so that we can enroll them at their present age grade.
Music Education
This is a new program. We are teaching children to play musical instruments. We now have (2019) over 59 musicians playing, violins, accordions, flute,guitar, ukelels, Keyboard, harmonca, recorders, beat box...more to come.NEW! Three Accordionists.
Music education gives them a 50% better advantage to graduate college. It is a discipline that helps them in life.
ESL
Teaching the English language
Feed the Kids
We feed the kids a hot nutritious meal once per day seven days per week.
Payatas Building Project
We built a two family house in Payatas. Lower level is a one bedroom for a Senior Citizen and upstairs are three bedrooms for a single mom with six children.
Payatas College Fund
Our 20 year plan (We are beginning our 14th year) is to raise children into adulthood and get them into good colleges and onto good futures. Right now we have 5 students . Two will be graduating as a C.P.A. and a English teacher, next year. The other three will start college in August of 2020. Our goal is to fund their education. Without it, they are doomed to poverty.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
To turn the impoverished and uneducated into God fearing, self replicating persons. This was never meant to be an Organization that just keeps feeding people without change. We are here to give others the ability to become better educated people and better citizens. Subsequently, giving them the ability for better paying jobs, self improvement and better living conditions. It is a mentoring program which they in turn will support and train others.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
We have taken young children as early as 4-5 years old, who literally comb the roads looking for garbage to recycle and transformed them. We clean them up, make sure they have clothes, educate them, teach them morals and structure through the word of God, teach them music or other outlets to encourage their self worth. Once they graduate college we plan for them to get a career and start supporting the younger children. Our strategy is to raise the kids to raise the kids.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Every single adult in our outreach Church is able to teach. Unlike budgets in school systems in America, we believe it is the hands on efforts of loving teachers and disciplined students that will propel them successfully into the future. We have extremely limited funding but are able to train fifty children at a time with what we have. Of course more funding means more trainees and buildings in which to train.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
This is a labor intensive effort and will not be fully realized for another 8-10 years. As we are bringing children 4 and up to full time employment, that will take a while. Every effort we have made to change these kids is working. They are better kids, happier kids. One example is two local college youths were doing a thesis and wanted to interview the children. Afterwards they told me they were so surprised. Our children wanted to be Doctors, lawyers, a pilot... I said , what's wrong with that? They said, no where in Payatas do children have goals higher than that of a garbage truck driver.
The children now have hope unlike many who are not part of our programs. With hope comes the desire to succeed. With that desire , combined with out teaching, they will. What a joy to have the kids bring us their report cards and see how happy they are to show us the improvement.
