Connecticut Quest for Peace

We provide school supplies and lunch programs to support children's education and feeding programs at schools in managua, nueva guinea, granada and somotillo. Our initiative sustains the nutrition program for 315 children at los cocos school in granada and the 1400 students at enrique del osso school in reparto schick, a poor barrio in managua. Additionally we are involved with sagrado corazon, a k-11 school for 1200 students and hogar alegria, an orphanage for 35 girls in granada. Lastly we support 19 high school and college students in leon through a scholarship program which enables them to further their education. We are proud to say that we have a number of university graduates.

We have sent cargo containers to paraguay and appalachia which contained donated medical supplies, school supplies, household goods, musical instruments, and items requested by donee organizations.

We support medical and dental clinics in impoverished barrios of managua. We have coordinated shipments of medicine to the pharmacy at reparto schick. Two medical teams visited bolivia in 2023 - a dental team from nova university that performed over 500 dental procedures, and a cleft palate surgical team, led by surgeons from emory university and columbia university.
