Carta de nuestra Fundadora, What obligation do we have to future generations? will the world be a better place for our having passed through it? These are questions that, in reflective moments, may cross our minds and give us pause. My position on these issues is rather simple. The Future—whether in our personal lives or in broader society—is being created by our actions today.
The future for children of poverty is usually dismal, unless extraordinary interventions occur. Trapped by lack of opportunity, education and basic resources, each generation is destined to repeat the cycle. it is possible to re-imagine the future for these children. Self-sufficiency, productivity, dignity, contributing to building a better world—all of these are possible. Children of poverty can succeed and maximize their human potential if they have right combination of academic rigor, values, structure, support and love.
Please enjoy Christel House Mexico’s Annual Report. Thanks to you, our children are reimagining their futures - building a solid foundation for themselves and for generations to follow.
Warmest regards,
Christel DeHaan Founder and Chief Executive Officer
Javier Alarcón Benet Director Ejecutivo Christel House de México
