CdA funds educations for girls and young women in Nicaragua.
The story of Círculo de Amigas (Circle of Friends) is the story of how one woman's resolve to teach a group of rural Nicaraguan women to sew has grown to encompass much more than just clothing bodies. Today Círculo is improving health, stimulating minds, building homes, empowering communities, and even saving the rain forest!
Our mission is to alleviate poverty in Nicaragua by helping women acquire skills and tools needed to improve their lives, enabling children to go to school, providing access to community health services, and giving direct aid to victims of severe family hardship or regional crisis.
