In Nicaragua and Colombia, our coaches show up for their students every single day. They engage kids on and off the field. They're passionate about their work and pour everything into our programs.
They’re mentors, role models, and sometimes the most consistent adult in a kid’s life. And they’ve told us they want to keep growing.
We want to provide our coaches opportunities to develop as coaches and leaders, including:
Darien Silva joined LtN as a student in 2013. An LtN scholarship helped her finish high school, and in 2016 she became our first girls’ coach. Today she’s Country Director of LtN Nicaragua, leading a team of six coaches, including young women who came up through our programs.
A great coach reaches hundreds of young people over a lifetime. Investing in coaches is how we make sure what we’ve built lasts.
Every gift helps our coaches keep growing for the kids who count on them. Thank you for investing in ours.
Coach Alexis coaches our students in Medellín, Colombia. He has the ability to make every kid he coaches feel seen, understood and cared for. Hear from him in his own words.
