Without higher education, many people are stuck in the cycle of poverty that their family has been for generations. However, due to financial and physical obstacles, young people often do not have the chance to attend primary or high school.
How does Rainbow Network support students in rural communities?
Colectivos
Rainbow Network offers classes for primary school students in the afternoons, called "colectivos", where students receive reinforcement in their core subjects, special tutoring, and a safe space to cultivate their creativity and individuality. Each student receives a nutritious meal through our nutrition center.
Primary & High School Scholarships
A Rainbow Network scholarship provides supplies, uniforms, and stipends for transportation to school and other educational-related expense to students in primary & high school. The program is managed by Education Coordinators that regularly check in on the students and monitor their progress and well-being. In addition, the students, their families, and their community have access to Rainbow Network resources including medical clinics, nutrition centers, assistance launching small businesses and more!
