Building Bright Futures and our Mission 13 Initiative
The first $100,000 has been matched!
Let's match the second $100,000.
Revised campaign deadline: April 30, 2025
The goal remains to fund construction of state-of-the-art classrooms for La Promesa School through completion of classrooms for grades 1-6, daycare facilities, and preprimary classrooms. The children we serve are impoverished, mostly raised by single mothers, who otherwise would have no opportunity to acquire any level of education much less one that will allow them to break their family’s cycle of extreme poverty which has led many to be abused and lacking in a solid moral foundation based on Christian values. Ground was broken the week of November 11, 2024 with an anticipated completion date toward the end of April 2025.
Our Phase One goal was $480,000 and we are at $384,209. Our new goal is $525,000. We can reach that by matching the remainder of the $70,000 available in matching funds. This will allow us to pursue three additional project goals.
- Purchase classroom desks, chairs, cabinets and educational tools
- Landscape around the buildings
- Complete a safe, multi-age playground
Budget Breakdown
- Funds Raised and matched to Date: $384,209
- Original Project Goal: $480,000

While we have been operating since 2013, using rented facilities and temporary classrooms serving approximately 85 children per year with not only an education but also two meals a day, together we can create a transformative educational environment that increases our ability to support these children’s learning and growth.
