IRS990/Desc0Education Services: We continued to coordinate afterschool programs for underprivileged children to provide improved provisions of the education services. We offer academic tutoring, arts, crafts, sports, mentoring, collegue prep,etc. A reading marathon and carnival were held with schools and tutoring centers to foster a love of reading among students. Mothers actively participated as volunteers in readings, involving families and faculty in the activities. These initiatives have received recognition for their contribution to students' academic, social, and emotional progress. There were 484 participants and 19 parent volunteers. A career day event was organized by tenth-grade students from Rosalina Caraballo and Francisco Oller schools. Distinguished professionals were invited to share their experiences with the young people, allowing them to explore career options, discover new passions, and inspire their academic and professional futures. The comprehensive development of 310 students from Cataño and northern Guaynabo is promoted, 96% of whom live in poverty and 34% are in special education. The school received the Full Service Community School (FSCS) award, highlighting our commitment to comprehensive services and community activities. Students completed 4,500 hours of community service. Summer internships were held in collaboration with law firms in Puerto Rico, allowing 25 students to explore legal and business careers. Fifty-one percent of students participated in activities such as public speaking, robotics, and sports, accumulating $4,915 contact hours.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Ecology- With the raices urbanas project we provided more than 4,700 contact hours with 1,322 participants and 3,389 volunteer hours. Our organization played a prominent role in the Teachers for the Planet catalog presented at the UN COP28, where we contributed innovative educational solutions to climate change and positioned ourselves as leaders in environmental education globally. Data were collected at strategic locations in the Cienaga Las Cucharillas Natural Reserve and surrounding communities in Cataño and Guaynabo, enabling the creation of a public database. Elevated levels of copper and ammonia were found. Urban spaces were revitalized with native and endemic trees, promoting biodiversity and mitigating the effects of climate change. Ninety-two trees were planted.
