Foundation Hotel con Corazón is a social enterprise based in Granada, Nicaragua, that invests 100 percent of its profits into community education programs. The Foundation strongly believes in the power of education to transform lives and open up opportunities and possibilities. Through after-school tutoring programs, extracurricular activities and scholarships for secondary and university students, our aim is to support children so they can finish school and build their own bright futures.
In November 2016, we collected stories from the various groups of stakeholders involved – primary and secondary students, scholarship recipients, parents, tutors and former participants – in order to get a better understanding of the impact of our projects.
