We believe that education is the medium to improve the human and social conditions of children. For this reason ACENLA benefits students with limited resources to invest in their education securing the assistance to formal education centres in the community, and facilitating a space for extra-curricular activities in areas of cognitive, social and individual skills.
Formal Education Support: Each child benefiting from ACENLA support receives a full scholarship providing the necessary supplies such as annual enrolment, monthly tuition, school uniform and school supplies necessary for the continuation of their activities. Bi-monthly, the child's advancement is monitored, as obtaining satisfactory results in their assignments is the commitment to receive support from the organisation.
Strengthening parallel areas of cognitive, social and individual skills: By making them the centre of attention, the children are supported in their school tutoring activities, plus strengthening values and knowledge that promote individual thinking and interpersonal relationships within them. The activities done with the children are based on their own needs and abilities which they themselves present, with the result of being an interesting and useful learning process for the child, not simply something imposed or empty of meaningful content.
The daily program of attention to the children includes the following activities:
Promoting Reading.
Doing Homework and School Projects.
Reinforcing Schoolwork.
Artistic and occupational workshops.
Board-games and Sports.
Integral Health and Nutrition
To ensure that each child progresses in an adequate way in their social and education process, they require ongoing physical health, so it's necessary that they receive good levels of diet and nutrition. ACENLA contributes towards this for the children in two ways:
Healthy Medication.
Preventative Health:
General Check-Ups.
Doctor and Dentist Visits.
Conversations with the children and their parents.
