CANTERA listens to the communities' dreams and supports leaders in making them come true. Afterall, who knows better than the people what they need?
However, grants do not fully cover important overhead costs such as salaries, employee training, planning and evaluation, or organizational development. Such expenses allow CANTERA to continue running (by paying water and electricity bills) and improving (by investing in long-term development).
Your solidarity supports the long-term sustainability of our programs and allows CANTERA to respond to vulnerable Nicaraguan communities' genuine dreams. Thank you!
