Sponsored classes
 

Many children do not have enough money to pay for state school ($2 per month) or the required school uniform. Carita Feliz has therefore received several donations in the form of class sponsorship. Typically, this involves finding a group of 38 children of different ages who are not in school for financial reasons, buying them each a uniform, black leather shoes, school bag, paper, pens, pencils and then paying the monthly fee to attend a state school. Since the start of 2004, 24 sponsored classes have been established:

As a result, 575 children now go to school thanks to the generosity of these people.

Casa de Estudios: Dorthe & Carl-Aage
In January 2005, Carita Feliz opened a new facility called Casa de Estudios: Dorthe & Carl-Aage. The building is a place where students from the sponsored classes can do their homework in a quiet and supportive environment. There are 10 trained teachers there to help them the primary school children and secondary school.

The Casa de Estudios is open each day for Primary School students between 8-10am and 1-3pm and for Secondary School students between 8-11 am and 1-4. The Casa de Estudios is named after the donors, Dorthe Kolind and Carl-Aage Laustrup from Denmark. It is an important donation for the children to use because in this room, they have none of the distractions that would normally prevent proper studying.
