Over the next few weeks on our social media platforms you may see a “Did you know?” caption that starts out the post like the one i’m going to post below. We thought it might be helpful to have you meet some of our staff, learn more about our programs, as well as learn some statistics of what we are working to change.
We hope you find these posts helpful and even educational.
We hope they help you feel empowered to engage in our story a little bit more.
Here is one of those posts:
Did you know?

"Sicaritos are children who are assassins, 13 or 14 years old typically. The cartels give them a weapon to use. It's easier for a boy. If he's older, he thinks too much — he may think about the consequences. But when you're young, you think you can take on the world."*

But did you know that by partnering with MARKED you are helping change this?

Say YES to partnership. Say YES to a future.

You see the region we work is targeted for situations much like the statement above. But through our programs, we are giving new opportunities like this one right here. Carpentry. We have partnered with a local company who is committed to helping us change this statistic. Giving opportunity to learn how to build and create. To dream again. And to hope for their future.
