Meet Santiago
In Santiago’s own words.
My name is Santiago. My birthday is December 22, 2017. I live in the city of Granada, Nicaragua, where I attend school.
The Context
Santiago’s world.
Santiago 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 Santiago lives, tropical downpours turn roads to mud and make schools unreachable for weeks. 19% of children under five have developmental delays from malnutrition.
Santiago has a sponsor.
Someone already walks with Santiago. Other children in the program are still waiting for a name to say yes.
