Choose a teacher to sponsor now >>
Imagine growing up in a poverty-stricken community where school is not a given. Your parents show you very little attention and you often go without food. You hear of other families where the children are receiving education, and you wonder if you will ever have the same opportunity.
This is a reality for many children in the Maria Auxiliadora Barrio. T.E.A.R.S. School is working to change that - one classroom at a time. This year we are starting up a Child Sponsorship program in order to expand the number of children we can support.
In order to teach students, however, we first need teachers. This is where you fit in. Today you have an opportunity to sponsor a teacher, who will provide the wonderful gift of education and, more importantly, the love of Christ to children in need.
The necessity of having sufficient staff in the T.E.A.R.S. School cannot be expressed. This is our foundation, our building blocks, the roots of the ministry. We invite you to ensure that these roots are strong. By supporting a teacher you are providing their salary, which they will live on. When funding to a teacher stops, so does their access to food, clothing and basic commodities. For this reason, consistency is important.
Please prayerfully consider this tremendous prospect, and may God guide your steps.
Sincerely,
T.E.A.R.S. Team &
Joy Reyes, Director T.E.A.R.S. School
