In Kids Alive Guatemala, fourteen girls took a significant step in their faith journey by getting baptized at a local water park. Months of discipleship and spiritual formation led to this joyous celebration, filled with devotion and fun. We are so proud of these girls' commitment to their faith and look forward to their continued spiritual growth, celebrating this milestone with them.
Ivy (pseudonym) joined the Kids Alive Karundas Program after losing her mother. Shortly after, she also lost her brother, her last remaining blood relative. The trauma affected her school performance and made it hard for her to build trust among her peers. Through dedicated counseling and support from KAI, Ivy has experienced healing and freedom. She found her voice and is now thriving in high school, excelling academically, spiritually, and emotionally!
Despite the crisis in Haiti, Kids Alive Haiti's focus on educational excellence remains steadfast. During Revision Week, students and teachers worked together to master subjects for the critical fourth-term test. We are grateful for God's protection and proud of our students' and staff's perseverance in continuing their education amidst challenging circumstances.
Tanya* and Lucy* (pseudonyms), part of Kids Alive's residential care programs in Peru, suffered from vision problems that made their lives and schooling difficult. They had no means to rectify the situation. Our teachers saw the problem, went to our social worker, and she ensured they received care. Doctors diagnosed Lucy with an inflamed optic nerve, needing corrective lenses and eye-drop treatment. Tanya was diagnosed with moderate myopia, requiring corrective lenses. Kids Alive covered the expenses, and they are now thriving academically!
Grace joined Kids Alive Academy when she was eight years old and could not read or write. Over the years, she has developed the ability to read fluently and write well. Now, at age 14, Grace is an intelligent girl who enjoys playing with her friends, singing in the school choir, and playing sports. She loves to learn in the computer lab, where they design and make different things. As she progresses to her final primary level grade, she is confident she will pass, which will take her a step closer to becoming a medical doctor.
