space of non-formal education for street children.

for children to improve their environment for themselves.

Gradually remove children from situations of risk (violence, accidents, drugs) to which they are exposed when they play on the street.

MISSION

of creative expression and discovery of talents. We hope this will help children develop leadership tools to build a future with better quality of life.
