Our MISSION
Education. Opportunity. A Better Future Begins Here.
Since 2003, Niños del Lago has been working to improve the lives of children in San Pedro La Laguna and surrounding communities through quality education in Math, English, and Art.
We believe education is not just a right — it’s a path to a brighter future. That’s why we focus on creative expression, critical thinking, and language skills that empower children far beyond the classroom.
Who We Support
We currently support 35 children — 20 girls and 15 boys — divided into three learning groups by age:
– 6 to 8 years old
– 9 to 10 years old
– 11 to 12 years old
Each child receives free classes led by dedicated teachers and volunteers, designed to strengthen their academic foundation and self-confidence.
