SEE More, Learn More, Grow More
Through the SEE Program, children from poor, rural Manos communities experience a life-changing opportunity to travel beyond their hometowns, exploring different cities and local culture, history, foods, and traditions. Through this program, children gain unforgettable memories, open their eyes and minds, and discover a world of possibilities through curiosity and exploration. For many students, it's the first time traveling outside their communities. The experience helps develop confidence and inspires them to work hard towards their education and progression. The knowledge and hopes they bring back to their communities afterwards is priceless. It is an opportunity to SEE more, Learn more & Grow more!

The cities of China are bustling, crowded centers of business and progression. If you've ever visited a remote village in China, you may have some idea as to where these children are from. If you haven't, however, imagine a remote place in the northern mountainous regions of China, a village of mostly dirt roads, ancient style brick homes, no heating systems, no plumbing, one-room school houses, and where living off the land is literal for the families and children who live there. The majority of the 1.3 billion people of China are called "peasants" in the colloquial speech, and are farmers and migrant workers. Poverty in education is what we aim to eliminate. That is, if we are able to help a child See more, Learn more, Grow more, then we can help a child living in poverty see opportunities, make educated decisions, and grow into strong, confident leaders. | ||
