The foundation “Pescador de Letras” is a non-profit organization, founded in the year 2017. Its purpose is to provide quality education to the children of LA BOQUILLA, which is an angler’s village outside of the City of Cartagena.
The two main objectives are education and alimentation of the children. Additional to regular education the foundation tries to develop different skills of the children, which allow them, to improve their quality of life, their physical and intellectual development, and the conditions in which they relate to their environment, as well as the way to face life after school.
As they have observed certain difficulties in the learning process because the children felt hungry, a feeding plan was developed, which covers most of their daily alimentation needs. The children are between 3 and 12 years and study between the preschool and elementary courses. Now there are 126 children assisting seven courses, which will be organized in five classrooms. The work team consists of 11 people.
DURATION: 3.5 hours
*NOTE: Visitor can donate school supplies (Notebooks, colours, scissors, pencils, sharpeners, erasers, rulers) and snacks for sharing with the children.
