We engage students with a happy environment
The CW school for girls is buzzing with activity and serious classroom lessons, final exams, 6th grade graduation plans as we hustle to get a lot done in the last 6 weeks of the 2022 school year. Add to this our Christmas celebration too.
Meanwhile, the new tuition-based Maria Co-Ed prep school is ready to give new students and parents interested in enrolling their children a tour for the start of 2023 school year next March. The Maria school is a colorful and modern primary school that will speak to children today - see images soon to have children. The school and classroom colors are bold with decorations for a happy atmosphere to welcome our first 4 & 5 year old kinder students. Last Saturday our CW Girls school teachers shared their artistic talents to decorate the new Maria school classrooms for a warm age-related welcome the little ones new to school. See photos.

THANK YOU
Potential new students visit MARIA School:
Imagine yourself with your pre-K little ones setting eyes on their new school for the first time while you explore the new school. What an exciting moment!
25 years of success at our Chicuchas Wasi School for Girls:
Further down the road our Chicuchas Wasi school for poor girls (at no charge to families) is super active with graduating girls meeting with alumnae girls now in public high school or University to share their stories of what comes after 8 years in the loving arms of CW school for girls.
Maria co-ed School is ready to enroll new students this Dec.
Our last few newsletters shared our CW longevity business plan to keep schools financed in Peru. The tuition-based co-ed Maria school is focused on providing quality college prep education for boys and girls and generating the income to fund both Maria and Chicuchas Wasi schools going forward.
Many Cusco parents refuse the lousy public schools; they prefer to pay for a private school education focused on a solid foundation to prepare their children to compete for entry into the national and international private Universities. Our two schools serve different communities, and both are in demand and CW is known for the quality education and empowerment we provide. Public schools do not offer the level of education that Chicuchas Wasi is known for. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of so many girls.
Our tuition based Maria School business plan -
will begin to generate reliable income to support the Maria school as well as the Chicuchas Wasi school for girls as it reaches full enrollment.
Cusco parents who demand quality private school education for their college bound children, plan to educate them at very competitive foreign and national universities. We really need your donations for this last move for longevity success in Peru. This is the perfect business for CW.org; the demand is here after covid permanently closed down many unqualified private schools that were functioning unsupervised in small rented buildings for many years. The CW Maria school is a beautiful modern and colorful primary school built to deliver quality education and welcomed by the Ministry of Education..
Meanwhile we still need your support for the Chicuchas Wasi School for girls- we continue to deliver at no charge to our poor families. Please see CW school budget PIE photo and donate. Thank you so much for the gift of education for girls.
The 35 years success of Chicuchas Wasi Org. nonprofit continues. However, we still need funding until the Maria school is generating enough income and we can say thank you for all your support - "The Maria school will fund both schools" BUT not yet friends! This is the moment and the last couple of years needed to implement the promise of longevity and free education for poor indigenous girls in Cusco, Peru. We are VERY VERY close! Please stick with us a bit longer. Financial independence for CW School for Girls is in reach! The ‘Maria co-ed tuition-based School’ will not only raise the funds to support the free CW school for girls and the Maria school – we will be providing quality education for boys and girls with our Chicuchas Wasi academic teaching style. Empowerment and respect for all is what both schools promise students along with confident young adults going forward.
The 2021 newly constructed Maria school was upended by Covid and the 2year lock-down of schools in Peru. Schools are now back with classroom education and the ministry of education has given CW the Maria school the green light to begin for 2023 school year. As more students enroll in the Maria school this will provide funds to add more teachers and grow the school and income. We appreciate any financial help you can offer to get Maria school off the ground.
I am sorry to keep asking, but our donations are down. Please donate any amount you can during this proces, so we are able to operate CW School for girls the next 2 years while Maria start-up operation gets going.
*Proposed 2023 Chicuchas Wasi School Budget $158,908.40 Included are school meals and transportation each year.
*Approximate 2023 Maria School budget $25,000 is minimal; to start-up Maria school with 3 classrooms & 3 teachers, maintenance of school and utilities. As student numbers grow so will the income from tuition for the operations of the school. Parents provide the family meal at home and transportation.
Many blessings to us all for a brighter, pandemic free new reality.

THANK YOU
Your continued support makes the difference!
CW's future when the (tuition-based ) 'Maria Tuition School' classes are filled, will be self-supporting. CoVid upset our plans to open the Maria school in 2020 until new school year in March 2023 due to lock down. We begin enrolling new students before year end. PLEASE DONATE
during this transition period to self-suffici9ence with the tuition based Maria school.
NOTE: Thank you all for hanging in there with us. We have a little way to go yet but the impact of our work is self evident in the success of our girls...some are at the university today.
THANK YOU
