Providing educational benefits to the students of the East Cape Region
About the East Cape Guild Established in 1997, the East Cape Guild is a non-profit organization which provides educational benefits for the students of the East Cape region, from south of Caduano, El Triunfo in the west, and El Cardonal in the north.
The Mexican government provides free education only through the 9th grade. The costs then become the responsibility of the family. With the annual costs to attend high school approaching $500, many students are not able to continue. The students we fund must demonstrate financial need as well as academic achievement.
We have awarded nearly 900 scholarships since we began the program in 1998. With the help of hard working volunteers and generous donors, we have been able to award scholarships to all qualified students for the last two years. However, we have not been able to include the cost of uniforms or other necessary school supplies.
We believe that education is one of the most valuable investments we can
make in these young people.
They are the future of our community!
