Aura, Guatemala

School for Technical Skills for Job Placement / Escuela de habilidades técnicas de empleo

After seeing many of her former students struggle to find work in their community, Aura became determined to build a center for providing faith-integrated workshops. Students from this rural region on the South Coast of Guatemala can now receive certifications in technical skills like mechanics and computer science, enabling them to secure jobs and create their own businesses.

Después de ver que muchos de sus alumnos luchaban por encontrar trabajo en su comunidad, Aura fue determinada construir un centro para ofrecer talleres integrados en la fe. Los estudiantes de esta región rural de la costa sur de Guatemala pueden ahora recibir certificaciones en habilidades técnicas como mecánica e informática, lo que les permite conseguir trabajo y crear sus propios negocios.
