Instituto Lideres del Siglo Friends of LISI #2309

What are we going to use the proceeds from our mission appeal for?

We gladly extend our greetings to you and would like to take the opportunity to present our mission in Mexico, specifically in Santa Cruz del Guaybel, Nayarit, known as the Sierra del Nayar, where indigenous communities of Coras, Huichols, and Tepehuanes reside. They live in areas very far from what could be considered development opportunities.

This region is mired in desolation, abandonment, and lack of attention to the population. There are no job opportunities, no avenues for wealth generation, no formal education or leadership training, and it also suffers from problems related to drug trafficking.

Our mission is to provide comprehensive personal development to the indigenous youth of this region, inspired by human values, with an excellent level of academic, sports, musical, and personal development, which allows them to live with a sense of social commitment and actively participate in the life improvement of their community.

We are currently building a campus in this area. In addition to being educational, the main function of this campus is to offer accommodation to young people, since their communities are very remote and there would not be enough time to complete schoolwork within a normal schedule. We will provide them with accommodation, food, education, sports, arts, and cultural activities, as well as workshops on how to use and take advantage of the resources available in their communities for life.

This project has already begun and we are laying the foundations for this comprehensive educational center, which will yield significant results in terms of opportunities for change and progress. It is not an easy task to carry out this great undertaking, that is why we are requesting your cooperation and donation to be able to continue with this mission.
