Testimonials

The Foundation opened our eyes to the issue of assistance and we realized that our concern had not been so urgent. We hope to maintain over time all that we have learned.

Jorge MenayDirector Colegio San Jorge

This has allowed us to systematize the meetings of the Attendance Committee, which has made it possible to establish new challenges, strategies and ways of dealing with the problem.

Pamela SuazoTeacher Liceo San Gerónimo

There has been a very big difference between the schools that have had Presente's support. They have the highest attendance ever. The most valuable thing about Presente is the rigor and regularity of the work.

Claudia VenegasExecutive Director Corporación Educacional Emprender

With Presente we have learned to transmit the value of coming to school. Because school is not only content, it is also a space of emotional protection that children do not always find at home.
