You’ll also discover a foundation created with the goal of helping people discover life outside of crime. A foundation including three separate, but equally important schools. The first is for children, which also provides two meals a day they would not receive at home. The second and third schools were created for the adults of this zone. A place where they will learn the skills needed to create products that can be sold to feed their families as an alternative to their previous lives of crime. In the woman’s school, they are taught how to weave with traditional methods, producing ponchos, mats, hats, and bracelets, amongst other products. And at the school for men, they craft the wood into small pieces of furniture, tools, and small souvenirs for travelers.
For many travelers, this is a life-changing experience where you truly understand how fortunate you are, and how many people have an extremely difficult life with their only sin being born in the wrong place at the wrong time.
