Sports and Arts

Our sports and arts program aims to help steer the youths in our community in the right direction. We believe this is the best way to combat the youth gang problems that are increasingly present in Cochabamba. All of the programs aim to keep the youth busy and focused on positive activities while also having fun! Currently we have programs focused around theater, music, arts, carving, soccer and volleyball. Our latest success:

• The theater group has performed in the two main plazas in the central city. And recently wrote and produced their own play, in collaboration with our psychologists, focused on some of the issues they face in their community.
• We now have two volleyball teams that are supported by the Olympic Club’s outreach project and are playing in the national tournament.
• Our art group meets every Saturday afternoon to draw, sketch or paint. At the moment the kids are really interested in Anime drawing and we are hoping to support them in making a comic by the end of the year.

We always encourage volunteers with sporting or artistic abilities to show and/or teach the kids different styles and concepts to help broaden their minds. Visit our volunteers page or contact us for more details.
