We serve a multi-religious group of boys from broken families. (By broken, I mean the husbands have abandoned their wives and children, or they are alcoholics or addicts, or they are violent towards their wives and children.) Our program tries to provide them with an environment of love and care, provide them with healthy food, send them to good educational institutions and arrange programs that equip them to face challenges in life We have sports and games programs, karate training, music and dance training We also have opportunities for theater performances which develop their leadership qualities and innate talents We also employ doctors and other medical staff to provide health services and psychological experts to provide counselling for our young people

To the impoverished or orphaned girls in our community, we provide both the basic necessities of life and free education from elementary school through college (undergraduate and graduate). We also help find employment opportunities for our girls after they've graduated from their professional training courses. While they are a part of our program, the children lead our five "ministries" that decide the daily activities of our community: the Environmental Ministry, the Educational Ministry, the Health Ministry, the Cultural Ministry and the Sports Ministry. All of our activities - workshops in music, dancing, tailoring, and sports - are designed to benefit and uplift the children here.

Nearly 1 out of every 3 Bolivian children work, making it difficult for many of them to attend school and leaving them vulnerable to exploitation. Our Towns offer working young people academic support and encouragement to ensure they don't fall behind or drop out of school.

PROGR A M HIGHLIGHT : YOUTH MENTORSHIP

As they develop their leadership skills, the young people attending our partner programs begin taking on more responsibilities and leadership roles within the program. Teenage students mentor the younger children, offering encouragement, advice and academic tutoring.

1 CITY (COCHABAMBA)

Boys' & Girls' Towns of Bolivia serves 82 children in the city of Cochabamba Children and young adults receive academic support, supplemental scholarships for vocational training and personal development through workshops Our Town also provides family outreach programs to parents to promote the importance of education for their children (In Bolivia, children may legally begin working at the age of ten )

In addition to leadership workshops, scholarships for vocational training and tutoring, our partner program provides the youth of Cochabamba with a safe and supportive community. The success of this Town is strengthened not only by the resources it offers, but by its tradition of older students mentoring and encouraging younger students who have recently joined.

We offer young people a community space, a respectful family, and a space where they feel welcomed and like the protagonists of their life Through our preventive programs, fewer and fewer children and adolescents drop out of education, flee their homes or join gangs. We are also recognized as an institution for our work in the prevention and protection of working children and adolescents. We contribute to the education of young people through technical training or university studies in different careers. We help children and adolescents acquire confidence in themselves, and we encourage them to take advantage of opportunities at other local and governmental organizations.

The most significant thing we provide to children and adolescents is personal attention. The children always say that they feel listened to at the Center. We not only provide a space of trust and security, but we also offer opportunities for personal and professional development in different areas. These include culinary training, baking, cell phone repair and graphic design. We also offer cultural opportunities such as visits to museums, visits to historical centers, dance classes, birthday celebrations and participation in sports championships.

Our children and adolescents learn about values, and through these lessons, contribute to their communities For example, they are taught about the value of respect for others We try to teach children and adolescents how to take responsibility for their own lives This is done through personal empowerment workshops like teamwork, leadership courses, life project workshops and self-esteem workshops, among others In the Center, the children assume responsibilities to collaborate on and lead many activities For example, the older ones volunteer to teach the younger ones through workshops and talks

As of 2015, one in every five women in Colombia between 15 to 19 years of age was or had been pregnant.

If all women completed secondary education, early births could fall by as much as 59%. Through vocational training and academic support, our Towns prepare our citizens for employment or college.

PROGR A M HIGHLIGHT : MUSIC A ND D A NCE

Music and dance are major parts of Colombian culture. Our partner programs offer classes and clubs for dancing, singing and playing instruments. These activities help teach our young people to work together and build their self-confidence.

2 CITIES (MEDELLÍN AND BOGOTÁ)

Boys' & Girls' Towns of Colombia provides 215 children in Medellín and Bogotá with access to an education, including workshops in art and athletics Most of these children come from extremely poor families who are unable to pay for their children's schooling, while others still live in poverty after being displaced by violence and unrest across the country

Through our three programs, the young people we serve are offered a safe environment in which they can grow into successful and responsible adults. Our youth are offered a quality education and technical training to provide them with employable skills in electricity, automotive mechanics and welding. As part of their education, our program partners help them develop their full professional potential and respond in empowered and creative ways to the demands of society.

We are located in a marginalized neighborhood where all families live under the poverty line, and most live in extreme poverty. The children of these families are highly vulnerable and don't have many opportunities to develop. Many of them have been displaced by civil unrest, intra-family violence or have lost one or both parents. We have a home for 60 girls (from 4 to 18 years old) who remain under our care from Monday to Friday, away from their neighborhood's risks of violence, prostitution, drugs and teenage pregnancy We offer them a comprehensive education and training in human and artistic values Alongside traditional school subjects, we provide classes in dancing, singing, keyboard and guitar, gardening and manilla making (a type of jewelry) As part of their development, we also offer teachings on values, good behavior, respect, justice, equity and equality All of our girls are encouraged to be volunteers and to give back to their communities after graduating from our program

When children go from primary to high school, we provide them with the opportunity to complete a technical high school. There they have four options: computing, welding, mechanics, and electricity. Their high school classes give them a foundation of training that allows them to have easy access to university upon completion of their high school. Alternatively, they have the technical knowledge needed to directly enter the world of work and thus transform their lives with a decent and well-paid job

M A Lnutrition In Youth

Guatemala has some of the highest rates of malnutrition in children in the world, with almost almost one million children under the age of five suffering from chronic malnutrition or growth stunting. Our Towns provide nutritious meals to our young people to ensure they grow up healthy and with the energy to learn and play.

PROGR A M HIGHLIGHT : VOC A TION A L COURSES

Our programs offer a variety of vocational training options to provide our young people with employable skills and broaden their horizons as to what careers they might pursue after graduation. Welding, baking, carpentry, mechanical repair and electrical courses are available to our high school students.

3 CITIES (SUMPANGO, CUILAPA AND GUATEMALA CITY)

Young people in Guatemala, particularly those in rural areas, face a host of obstacles to completing school and building their own future. A Chance In Life works to remove those obstacles and provide every child with the resources they need to succeed. Boys' & Girls' Towns of Guatemala consists of four programs located in Guatemala City, Cuilapa and Sumpango. In collaboration with our local partners, we serve 174 children and ensure the orphans and impoverished youth of these cities receive an education.

Our two programs in Guatemala City support young men in high school and young elementary school students. In Sumpango, we provide children living with HIV/AIDS with the medical care and education they need. Our program in Cuilapa ensures that young women from poor families have the resources they need to finish school.

Our program is precisely for children and young people with limited resources, looking for an opportunity for a better chance in life The young people of our program receive a comprehensive training: human, spiritual and intellectual, academic (intermediate and diversified levels) and technical (bakery workshops, electricity, and others) In this way, young people at the time of completing their education already have a wealth of knowledge to contribute to a society with justice, sincerity, truth and freedom. They are also prepared to choose a professional career and attend university or a technical course in carpentry, electricity, mechanics or baking.

Our program serves a very vulnerable group of children. Our focus is to be a family for orphaned children with HIV/AIDS. In our home, children receive a quality education, a home to live in, have friends, enjoy recreational activities and develop as human beings. In our institution, this special vulnerable group receives equal opportunities. All children who live here receive the proper care that they would not otherwise receive at home

2 CITIES (LIMA AND NUEVO CHIMBOTE)

Boys' & Girls' Towns of Peru supports just under 1,000 children coming from backgrounds of extreme poverty. Our Towns in Nuevo Chimbote and Lima offer schooling and family outreach programs to ensure a healthy home environment.

The program in Lima provides free meals, psychological support and tutoring to ensure our students' academic progress. Project staff work with both young people and their families to connect them with the resources and opportunities they need to finish school and seek either employment or a university degree. Program staff in Nuevo Chimbote, an informal settlement outside the city of Chimbote lacking many basic services, work with children and their families to provide them with a safe and inclusive environment where they can thrive academically.

The project seeks to empower children and adolescents together with their families. We promote vocational skills for human and professional success in coordination with different universities and institutes and other organizations related to personal development In the same way, we are a social-emotional support for many children and their families in this time of crisis We provide emotional support and active listening, vocational support, nutritious food, training in ecological awareness and academic reinforcement

We give children and their families better opportunities for personal development and a solid foundation for future growth and success. Our program team consists of a psychologist, a social worker and an art teacher, and focuses on supporting our students, teachers and parents. The program emphasizes the importance of socialization among students in supporting their cognitive and behavioral development. For parents, the program engages them in their children's development through workshops, home visits and assistance in connecting to essential government services. For teachers, we provide resources to identify and address physical, emotional and social issues that might hinder a student's learning process.

As COVID-19 began to rage across international borders, A Chance In Life launched an immediate response to continue caring for the almost 4,000 youth we serve in Italy, Ethiopia, India and Latin America. As schools closed around the world, many of our young people were sent home to struggling relatives poorly equipped to care for them. Starting in mid-March, A Chance In Life worked to supply these children and their families with enough food supplies to get them through the end of the pandemic.

A partnership with the Caritas Pro Vitae Gradu Charitable Trust and the extraordinary generosity of our donors allowed us to feed over 10,000 children and their family members over the course of four months. We are proud of our ability to launch an immediate response to the urgent humanitarian needs of our children, and so grateful to have supporters that helped make it possible.

As the pandemic continues, we continue to work with our local partners to ensure our youth have the resources they need to remain safe, healthy and learning

As part of our #MonthofMeals campaign, we invited our supporters to stay home and share a "digital feast" with us on May 19 to raise money for emergency food relief. In exchange for a donation of $50 - enough to provide a month's worth of lifesaving, nutritious meals to a child - our donors received our Home Together Cookbook with recipes from our partner programs around the world.

A Chance In Life was also grateful to receive support for our Home Together event from a number of celebrity chefs. Author, activist, model and television host Padma Lakshmi contributed a recipe for Indian dosas and shared our campaign with her many Instagram followers. Marc Forgione, owner of Restaurant Marc Forgione and Peasant and coowner and partner of Khe-Yo, gave us a twist on a classic Italian dish with his carbonara-in-a-jar recipe. Restaurateur and James Beard Award-nominee Elizabeth Falkner sent us a celery salad recipe perfect for the start of summer Between their recipes and the dishes of our Towns, our donors had all they needed to create a delicious meal at home while also providing food relief to our young people

"Wherever there is a child in need, we should be there." We strive to live by our founder's words and find opportunities to serve at-risk youth wherever the greatest need appears. In the past year, A Chance In Life is proud to have offered our support to these projects around the world:

A Chance In Life supports a special project in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico, where the community deals with an extreme crime rate The program covers basic needs and promotes a culture of care for sixty young girls, the majority of whom are orphans (Photo above, left )

The program provides these young women with legal services (many of our youth have been victims of a crime), psychological care, food supplies, educational resources and social support Special attention is given to young women and children who are Tarahumara, an indigenous people native to the region who have faced increasing levels of poverty and targeting by drug traffickers in recent years.

A Chance In Life supports a project in Kampala, Uganda to provide teenage girls and young single mothers with vocational training in cosmetology. (Photo above, right.)

The project gives free technical training to ten young women in hairdressing, makeup, pedicures and manicures. These high-demand skills help the girls find employment and cover their basic needs. It also provides them with a community, network of support and the chance to share and workshop their business plans with other women

Our partnership with this project was established in 2019 in memory of Paula Cangialosi, a longtime supporter of A Chance In Life and lifelong advocate for at-risk children

I often say that as you live life you have two hands - you have one hand to help yourself, and the other to help others That helping hand really makes a difference, especially for the children of A Chance In Life It's important to keep paying it forward, and to keep telling the new generation that it's important to give back

All of us members in the Italian Club at the Academy of the Holy Angels are so grateful to be raising money for such an amazing organization. We strongly resonate with A Chance in Life's mission because we believe everyone, no matter their background or previous situation, deserves the opportunity to succeed in life. We believe in the power of education and how it can drastically change a child's life. We hope to continue raising money for such a transformative organization
