Amped for Education is a nonprofit organization founded in 2009 with the
aim of expanding education to impoverished areas of Nicaragua. Through
fundraising, we were able to help plan, construct, and open a high school
in Nueva Esperanza, an impoverished barrio of Granada, Nicaragua with
other non-profits. We are starting to organize voluntourism trips, which
we believe will not only help us to develop existing and new projects, but
most importantly will offer participants a once-in-a-lifetime international
experience.
Amped for Education, Inc. was founded in September 2009 and became incorporated in the State of Massachusetts on December 7, 2009. We are organized for charitable and educational purposes beginning with expanding education to impoverished areas of Nicaragua and throughout the world.
We encourage the continuous learning of students beyond the elementary levels. Amped’s primary focus is to include the community in the planning, construction, development and operations of the schools and places of learning. From local contractors and builders, to natives teaching in the classroom, a key aspect of Amped for Education involves working side by side with people, rather than simply for them.
