This is a fundraiser for Legacy of Hope Restored (LHR), a U.S. based nonprofit that works to feed, educate, and mentor the economically poor and marginalized through meaningful partnerships with schools and organizations in the communities they serve. They currently help support two programs that are empowering children and their families in Cartagena, Colombia and Mendoza, Argentina.
- In Cartagena, Colombia they started a tutoring program to help children falling behind in school get the help that they need to not only survive, but thrive.
- In Mendoza, Argentina they support an educational program that serves at-risk children and families. PEPE's provides educational support, basic needs, and a supportive community for the children and families in their community.
Additionally, this year we are working with Madison County Schools to help fund at least one school's Family Resource Center. (Madison County Schools' Family Resource and Youth Service Centers (FRYSC) are school based, grant funded centers designed to identify, coordinate and make effective use of existing school and community resources, with the goal of increasing students' academic success.) This is something we'd like to expand upon over the next couple years.
