COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM – Awaken foundation

The Community development program

To create sustainable community programs to support the communities with educational, mental and physical health. To provide holistic support through the constant personal, professional, and social development of the communities we work with.

We work with communities in the rural areas of Ecuador that can not easily access education, medical attention and other personal and professional development opportunities.

We support each participant’s physical, psychological, behavioral, educational, and professional development while cultivating a better quality of life. Finally, we work with society at large to raise awareness about a culture of compassion and social support.

Educational program

We collaborate with ongoing educational preparedness projects at the communities to ensure that every kid has access to education.
We help the parents with the registration process and ensure their kids are enrolled in the public schools of the area.
We focus on primary and secondary students.

Through our Clubs program we strive to create a safe space where leaders from the communities, after being trained by professionals, have the knowledge and the expertise to lead activities within projects. This creates consistency within the clubs.
Our participants undergo personal development training, geared to help participants actively and effectively make a positive impact on their social circles and community

Focuses in teaching the basics of Microsoft office, internet navigation and videoconference tools.

English opens up our participants to much more opportunities. This could be finding a better job or starting their own entrepreneurship project.

Sports are the best way to channel emotions while also keeping participants away from drugs and other vices.
