Ushpa Ushpa

We are currently sponsoring the university education of seven youngsters from families living under marginal economic conditions from the settlement of Mineros San Juan Ushpa-Ushpa near Cochabamba. Subjects currently being studied include: Nutrition, Dentistry, Business Administration, Electrical Engineering, and Medicine.  We were previously also able to provide the money which allowed the local health care centre to remain open and expand.

San Ignacio / Rosa de Anze Home

We have sponsored the higher education of a number of young adults from these homes. Three have qualified as teachers, another with a medical degree and others with nursing, medical technician and public accountant qualifications respectively. We previously helped with the expenses of two boys in the final year of the school, which is adjacent to the San Ignacio Home. We are currently funding the further education of one of the boys from the school who is doing an IT course and a young lady, who was previously at the Rosa de Anze, who is studying accountancy.
