More About Casa Xalteva

If you've checked out the Casa Xalteva website, you know that it is more than a Spanish language school. They also take in select, neglected children and essentially raise them. They support 15 kids currently. They provide them with 3 meals a day, clothing and extra schooling (most are several grade levels behind). Public school is only a 1/2 day in Nicaragua, so the kids are expected to come to Casa Xalteva for the other half day. Their staff, along with foreign volunteers, teach the kids. This afternoon we are going on a tour of the city and will be visiting other organizations that help children. We are going to decide where, when and with whom we'll volunteer to help.
