Helping Hands

Girls in the Helping Hands program are typically at medium risk for exploitation. We also have girs that are in the high-risk category but unable to come to the home for whatever reason are often in this program as well.

For this program, we make home visits to build relationships with families. We also give school tutoring once per week and teach a variety of workshops to equip the girls with soft skills. Our visits and tutoring can include:

• Homework support, crafts, reading, etc.
• We share the gospel and work through biblical based curriculum.
• We also monitor academic progress by checking report cards to ensure they are attending school as well as work with the schools and teachers if needed to ensure the child has the best chance for success.
• Each month we give classes of different subjects as sewing, painting, cooking, etc.                                                                              

Amparo financially covers all the child’s school supplies, fees, tuition, and transportation if needed.

Helping Hands children receive wellness checkups covered by Amparo.  All necessary medical attention is covered by Amparo.

Holidays are important to children but often when living in extreme poverty they may not even know their own birthday.  Helping Hands children receive a gift and recognition for their birthday and Christmas.

We also have an incentive program for children in Helping Hands. If a child maintains a C average in all their classes, Amparo will take them to a movie to acknowledge their achievement.
