Faces of the Americas cares for children while supporting parents in Cataño

Faces of the Americas has a longstanding relationship with the Cataño Community, providing an after-school program for children and teens. The program aims to contribute to the well-being of one of the poorest municipalities on the island. Caras is back on its feet to provide parents with a reliable place to leave their children while they return to their jobs or seek new ones.

With a grant from the Puerto Rico Community Foundation, Caras will be able to acquire educational materials to continue serving children in the communities of Vietnam, Sabana Amelia, Juana Matos, and Puente Blanco, all in Cataño.
