Graduation
2021 was a year of virtual classes but students also attended school in small groups to reinforce mathematics. Our social worker visited the students' homes to assess the needs of the families and provide them with support. Bags of food were handed out to them. The situation in the country caused some students to stop studying but we already visited them to encourage them to return. We are now ready to start in-person classes on March 7, and we all look forward to it. The school and kitchen are ready and arranged with all biosecurity measures.
Your support makes a difference in the lives of these kids who need it so much. Thank you for being part of Juntos Podemos.

Focus on our goals
By Tina Chu | Project Leader
Last week we started the third trimester and will finish the school year in December. Ismael Ruiz, the director of the school, has worked from the heart, with passion and love for his students for the last 15 years. The teachers are dedicated and have a vocation for service. Adela, our social worker, graduated from Together We Can Academy 8 years ago, and now has a degree in Social Work. She visits the students’ houses to assess their needs so we can help them as much as we can. Students appreciate it and work hard. We are focusing on our goals, working as a team, and getting good results. One of the attached videos shows testimonies from students and alumni.
We are deeply sorry to have lost the founder, visionary, and driving force of Juntos Podemos, Bob Gunn, this past August. May he rest in peace. In the attached video, we honor his memory and his great work.
Thank you for your faithfulness and for joining us on this journey.

15 Years Celebration
Hello Dear Friends,
We started 2021 school year on March 8 with online classes. The first trimester will end on June 11. We are pleased to announce that the second trimester will start on June 14 and part of the classes will be online and part in the classroom. It will be great to bring our student back to our school again. The administration is ready, the teachers are excited, the students are happy.
This year we are celebrating our 15th Anniversary and last Friday we had a virtual meeting to share with students and alumni. What great testimonies and feedback we received from them. We are proud of our people.
Thank you for your faithfulness and for being there for us.
Best Regards,
Tina Chu
