Meet Adriana

In Adriana’s own words.

My name is Adriana. My birthday is April 10, 2008. I live in Nicaragua, where I attend school.

“Adriana would like to go to college and study to become a doctor.”

The Context

Adriana’s world.

Adriana lives in Granada, Nicaragua — one of the oldest colonial cities in the Americas. Behind the painted facades and cobblestone streets, families in the surrounding barrios survive on less than $10 a day.

63% of Nicaraguans live in poverty. In the barrios where Adriana lives, tropical downpours turn roads to mud and make schools unreachable for weeks. 19% of children under five have developmental delays from malnutrition.

Someone already walks with Adriana. Other children in the program are still waiting for a name to say yes.
