 DIGNITY FOR THE​ MARGINALIZED

THIS IS OUR MISSION
Systemic injustice perpetuates poverty and violence in marginalized communities. We believe it does not have to be that way, if the church works to promote justice and opportunities for the poor. ​
MAKE YOUR IMPACT
The poor do not need handouts of shoes, clothes, food, or houses. They need TOOLS: a safe environment, an education, a job, ​and the dignity of providing what they need for themselves.

We serve the poor of La Carpio, Costa Rica in strategic ways that empower them to break the cycle of poverty through long-term development instead of short-term aid. Our programs serve individuals from birth to adulthood, ensuring that they have tools for the most pressing developmental objectives of each life stage.

​When people are educated, have work that is not exploitative, and live in healthy families free from violence, they have the necessary ingredients to escape from poverty without continual aid from outsiders.

Three Core Initiatives
