Association of Spanish Language Schools in Oaxaca (founding member)
www.learningcenteroaxaca.com
The Learning Center is a well-run education project just a few streets from our school. Gary Titus, the founder, saw a need for a support system for kids coming from villages or low-income families trying to either continue their education or enter the job market. Only too often, these children are not able to continue their schooling for financial reasons or make uninformed employment choices as they are unaware of their abilities or potential. Academia Vinigulaza supports this extremely worthwhile local program and we invite you to check it out, and if you would like to – do the same!
