"I like coming to the community eatery because I have fun since before I go to school."
Every morning, E. and his sister go to breakfast at the dining room of the Maria de Guadalupe Community Center in Monte Alban neighborhood in the state of Oaxaca. He says he gets up in a good mood because he knows he will have a good breakfast, and he will be laughing and talking.
Despite being very close to the capital of the state of Oaxaca (only 5 minutes away by car), Colonia Monte Alban is considered one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the state, due to high rates of crime, violence, addictions and parental neglect.
With breakfasts with all the nutritional requirements before school and after-school activities, Crecemos DIJO seeks to accompany children like E. and his sister, to help them develop their physical, emotional and cognitive abilities to give them the possibility of having a future far from their current context.
Through the school accompaniment program, DIJO contributes to the reduction of the social inequality gap by providing them with the opportunity to have adequate physical, cognitive and socioemotional stimulation.
Donate to Crecemos DIJO and be a hero, take children away from the hands of delinquency and give them the opportunity to know the beauty of self-realization and openness to new dimensions of life such as the pleasure for reading, art and sports.
