📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Musuq Sunqu in Quechua means “New Heart”. It is a non-profit day care and after-school care center in Sucre serving poverty-stricken families who have recently emigrated from underdeveloped areas of the Bolivian countryside. Musuq Sunqu children, ranging from 3 to 14 years old, receive help with their schoolwork (including learning Spanish, which for many of the children is a second language), and also are fed three meals and a snack every day.
The aims of the project are: to provide a quality nutrition to children of the area so they are able to perform in the school and follow up their performance through pedagogical support; to create a healthy leisure environment for children of the area, to allow families to work while their children are being cared for with food and pedagogical support in the project.
