Bringing the class to the market #9
We’ve loved sharing Nicole’s story with you.
But not every child has the opportunities she has had.
In Quito’s markets, many children grow up working alongside their families, without consistent access to education.
Without that access, the impact is long term.
Children are more likely to leave school early, face limited job opportunities, and remain in cycles of poverty.
Education changes this.
At UBECI, we take a simple approach.
A low-cost, high-impact model that brings learning directly into the markets.
Through this model, we actively work to prevent school dropout and expand children’s future opportunities.
Even one additional year of schooling can significantly increase a child’s future income and opportunities.
Through these classes, children build confidence, develop soft skills, and begin to imagine a different future.
Nicole is one of the children who has had that opportunity.
Through her scholarship, she is learning English, growing in confidence, and dreaming bigger.
But many children are still waiting.
We can’t do this without your support.
Help us bring education to more children.
When a child is given the chance to learn, everything can change.
