Educational Program
Every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, and dream big. But in communities with limited opportunities, education can't wait. That's why we open the doors to learning for the children in our Foundation. Our classes nurture creativity and support emotional, social, cognitive, and physical development.
By using play and teamwork, we make learning fun, meaningful, and collaborative.
How We Do It
Every course we offer is designed to meet a specific need identified within the communities we serve—whether it’s improving literacy, building emotional resilience, or strengthening social skills. Our programs combine hands-on learning with updated educational content and are supported by our experienced team of educators, counselors, and volunteers.
We offer everything from homework help and reading workshops to creative arts, physical activity, and life skills training. Each class is carefully crafted to support the whole child and act as a bridge toward long-term personal and academic success.

Our Clans: Growing with Imagination, Purpose, and Heart
Each stage of childhood is unique, powerful, and full of opportunities to learn, create, and dream. At Rise & Walk, we celebrate this journey through our clans, age-based groups that support each child’s individual pace of development and help strengthen their talents and abilities.
In every clan, we nurture imagination, values, and curiosity, creating experiences that inspire children to grow with joy, confidence, and purpose.
Elf Clan (Ages 5-7)
Children in the Elf Clan are at a magical stage of discovery—exploring the world with curiosity, creativity, and kindness. Through games, art, homework support, and hands-on activities, we nurture their imagination, social skills, and independence while helping them connect with themselves and their surroundings.

Este programa responde al compromiso de fortalecer el proceso académico de niños, niñas y adolescentes mediante un entorno seguro, estructurado y motivador.
Desde un enfoque pedagógico integral y con el compromiso de garantizar la infancia que se merecen hoy, el programa de apoyo de tareas no solo se enfoca en acompañar el cumplimiento de las actividades académicas, sino que también busca abordar de manera oportuna y empática las diversas dificultades que inciden en el rendimiento escolar. De manera complementaria, se busca generar espacios de refuerzo para mejorar sus habilidades escolares.
Este enfoque de trabajo cooperativo no solo potencia el desarrollo integral de la infancia, sino que también permite, a través de la creación de alianzas y redes de apoyo, fortalecer el sentido de comunidad.
De esta manera, se consolida una labor social que exige la participación activa y comprometida de todos los actores: familias, educadores, instituciones y el entorno social, para lograr una transformación real y sostenible de las realidades que afectan a nuestros niños y niñas.

Today’s world is constantly changing, bringing new challenges to childhood. Kids face weaker community ties, more focus on individualism, and the task of finding their identity in a diverse environment.
To meet these challenges, our Foundation uses a learning approach based on collaboration, communication, and active listening. We believe these skills are essential for children to grow and learn together.
Through collaboration, children explore many forms of art:
-
Theater: building spontaneity and body expression
-
Music: practicing rhythm and instruments like guitar, flute, piano, xylophone, and metallophone
-
Dance: discovering traditional Colombian dances and exploring personal identity
-
Visual Arts: experimenting with various creative techniques
We continuously evaluate and support each child’s progress in thinking, movement, and social skills. This helps us guide their overall development in a world that’s always evolving.
