Christel House provides Mexican children from under-served communities with life-changing, quality education, health care, nutritious meals, character/life skills development and continued guidance after graduation. Our goal is to empower children to overcome the barriers of poverty and identify and realize their goals, dreams, and human potential. We will seek to honor your donation requests, subject to Christel House International's discretion and control as required under federal law.
Students living in Mexico today face many challenges. Over 50% of the population of Mexico lives in poverty, 39.5% lack access to basic health care and 20.7% lack access to sufficient food. In Mexico, only a primary education (grades 1-6) is mandatory. Each year more than 700,000 students drop out of basic education - only 27% make it to high school graduation. For most girls in Mexico, the barriers to success are great.
For over 25 years, Christel House has been dedicated to empowering children from under-resourced communities to realize their potential and transform their futures. We've done this by providing the comprehensive support system they need to thrive, both in school and beyond.
Our holistic model supports each of our students for 18+ years. This in-depth, whole-child approach integrates rigorous academic learning with nutrition and healthcare, life skills, social support, and college and career guidance. It's a deep commitment that helps students demonstrate that they have limitless potential.
