Needed Causes
Smiling School Kids

Nicaragua, El Salvador
The primary goal of Smiling School Kids is to honor God by supporting needy children. Many children in the areas we serve lack money for school uniforms and even shoes. Some go to class everyday and face the embarrassment of being “different.” Others stay home or work (even at elementary age). SSK helps these children socially, academically, and spiritually.
