Poverty in 2021 should not exist and yet it does.  There are many roots to underlying cause of poverty, however education and literacy are still one of the strongest factors in determining poverty.  Education is the great equalizer - we know that most people living in poverty may keep their children out of school.  Children living in poverty will not have access to technology or reading materials to help them escape their own circumstance.  Learning to read, becoming educated, is the cornerstone of ending the cycle of poverty.  Our goal is to ensure that displaced communities have libraries, and have the opportunity of learning.  Education, we know, reduces income inequality, improves economic growth, and provides children the opportunity of becoming a thriving member of their community.  Our main areas are serving Indigenous Communities both in Canada and Peru. 

Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.

Our Focus

Education

Education is the most important right of every human being.  Educating the mind can help develop a sense of self, confidence and may be one of the only ways to change the cycle of poverty around the world.  Living Heart believes that it is through the development of children and children's education that change can happen.  Our primary focus is to ensure that children have equitable access to learning, and learning materials that they need, to better their future.

Technological Equity

Technology is an integral part of the learning process.  And yet many children around the world do not have access to the tools they need to ensure that they are able to compete in an increasingly technological world.  That is why Living Heart wants to provide technology to children who are less fortunate.  Providing all children with the essential tools to help them help themselves escape the cycle of poverty with the power to learn.

Libraries

Literacy is a key component of education, and learning.  That is why lending libraries and books are essential to our projects.  Our first project is in the highlands of Peru.  Working with our team on the ground in Peru, our goal is to have a fully stocked library for the communities of people living in the highlands of Peru.  Stacked with educational books in both the Quechua and Spanish Languages.  Your donations will help us to achieve this in 2021.

Our Primary

Goals

Lets keep this simple.  We have 3 primary goals to achieve.  To provide equitable access to technology, to ensure children have access to the tools they need to learn, and to develop access to books and lending libraries for children in need.

Provide equitable access to technology to children who need it.

Ensure that children have the tools and resources they need to learn.

Develop Lending libraries and access to books, for children and adults in marginalized communities to encourage reading and literacy.
