PSYCHOLOGY

The focus of psychology is the pillar of our program. Over the years we have understood that if a child, adolescent or adult is and feels well, it improves their school performance, but more importantly, they know that they are capable and deserve to succeed.

HEALTH

The health approach involves the promotion of a healthy lifestyle: healthy eating, exercising and moving, oral health and the right to medical care. In addition, we believe that if a person is in good health, they can have a more motivation to transform their life.

EDUCATION

We use the free time of children, adolescents and adults to motivate them to continue studying. In addition, we have a team of special educators who give tutorials to some children, and volunteer artists who teach them to explore their creativity.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT

Community development is focused on employability. We seek to give tools to our students so that they can find and remain in a decent job. In addition, we started to train children so that in the future, they will know and dream of a decent job.

Thanks to our volunteers, sponsors, Board of Directors and Staff!

We want to thank all of our volunteers, volunteers and TCUs that throughout the year supported Lifting Hands through their skills, positively impacting the lives of hundreds of children, adolescents and adults of the Bajo de Los Anonos community . Without you, it would be impossible to achieve so many hours of courses, sharing so much love, knowledge, laughter and learning. Every day we appreciate your commitment and dedication!

Thanks to the sponsors and godmothers who support us financially and who invest their time to share with their godchildren and godchildren. You are an engine that helps us walk and get ahead! The business partnerships have allowed us to have an increasingly larger social impact on issues of physical health, mental health, education and impact on the community. Thank you sponsors for the opportunities and donations that you give us!

Having a Board of Directors allowed us to set goals and see them met with the great support of each and one of the members: Diana Madrigal, Alejandro Egea, Carolina García, Gabriela Saborío and Tatiana Peralta-Quirós. Thank you!

July, Vero and Moni: thank you for working with excellence and with so much love and for being patient and loving with the people who set foot on the foundation every day. But above all, thank you for believing in so many children, adolescents and adults who dream of having a better future!
