I strongly believe in the importance of getting a good start in life and that education is a catalyst for making children’s dreams a reality. That is why I am thrilled to share with you that Colectiva Latina and LATISM will be joining forces for #TheStoryOfEmma & #LATISM twitter party to raise awareness about the importance of investing in giving children a good start in life to help make their dreams come true.
Growing up in Guatemala my parents made many sacrifices to ensure that I had a bilingual education and I am so thankful for this because being bilingual has really opened countless doors and opportunities for me. We all want better opportunities for our children and that is why I feel so passionately about Mi Escuelita which provides early childhood education to low income at-risk children in the Dallas area. Mi Escuelita teaches English to children from all cultures and prepares them for academic success.

Very nice post. Actually the education is like a weapon for everyone to win in his life. You are much more capable and think more if you are a literate.
