Lighthouse Learning
Program
In 2008 Lighthouse Station developed a new
scholarship program to target the high illiteracy
and school dropout rates in Chichicastenango.
This region is similar to many other impoverished
areas around the world in that many families
and communities cannot pay the costs of educating
their children. Sadly, it is often a nominal
tuition charge or the small price of uniforms
or transportation that prevent many children
from receiving an education.
Lighthouse Station quickly discovered that this
is an area where a little assistance can make a
large difference. The price of educating a child
in Guatemala is minimal, while the benefits are
limitless. Our scholarship program works directly
with local communities to select children in direct
need of this assistance and to assess educational
costs for each child.
