At Peru Champs, we seek that children who doesn´t have access to quality education develop their potential through our school scholarships, accessing leadership programs that make it possible for them to fulfill their dreams and goals, managing to generate an impact on their community.
Angel is one of these talented Champs, who learned to make each challenge an opportunity to continue growing. Currently, he is part of an innovative initiative to reduce the educational gap in the country called “Sumaq Yachay”, which promotes the education of young people without distinction of social class and economic status in an innovative and creative way.
His journey with us begins when, after finishing elementary school, a friend tells him about our educational scholarship. Ángel likes to embark on new challenges that contribute to his personal growth, so he does not hesitate to apply for the scholarship with the support of his parents.
Throughout his education, he faced many challenges: the teaching methodologies at Innova Schools were different and he didn´t have a good knowledge of the English language. However, thanks to the accompaniment of Peru Champs, through the Leadership Training Program, he was able to level out and better adapt to teaching at the new school.
Also, with the help of the High Potential program, he was able to perfect his English, which opened the possibility of applying to international opportunities that are held in this language. This is how he managed to enter the Cometa Scholarship, being one of the 100 admitted among the 2,275 applicants to study at a university abroad.
At Peru Champs we seek to train the next agents of change that Peru needs. Like Angel, there are many boys and girls with great projects and dreams that can change the world. Transform lives by donating today.
