In Karla’s own words.

My name is Karla. I live in Nicaragua with my family. My birthday is March 3rd. Natural Science is my favorite class in school. I love the color purple. My favorite animal is a cat.

Karla loves to read her Bible.

The Context

Karla’s world.

Karla 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 Karla lives, tropical downpours turn roads to mud and make schools unreachable for weeks. 19% of children under five have developmental delays from malnutrition.
