As a ministry, we have been asking ourselves, “What is the best way to help the people of Cristo Rey?” “What will positively change their lives?” “What will break the generational cycle of living in poverty?”
Our answer was EDUCATION. In February 2014, we started our Student Enrichment Program. We chose eight teenagers who were entering “Middle School” and offered them an opportunity to go to a private, Christian school to further and better their education. Over the next couple of years, we would expand to 26 students, 52 students, 85 students, 92 students, and this year 78 students!!
Every year we see changes in our students. We see their excitement as they pursue their dreams. Their dreams expand into choosing degrees they want to study in college. They study and work hard to change their lives! As students see their classmates graduating high school and the possibility of going to university, it makes them strive harder to get good grades so they can accomplish the same goals.
In 2024, we have 23 students who are in university. For some, they are the first person in their families to graduate high school and they all are the first in their families to go to university. How exciting is that? Our university students are studying accounting, English, psychology, nursing, travel and tourism, architecture, marketing and publications, industrial engineering, and computer engineering. They are going to be world changers!!!
