By the Stories
Real Kids. Real Change. Real Hope.
When Lucas first joined Superniños, he was quiet and hesitant. He stayed in the background and rarely spoke. Through music—learning guitar, practicing songs, playing alongside others—something opened up. With encouragement and time, Lucas found his voice.
Today, he writes songs, performs confidently, and stands proud in front of others.
For Michelle, the turning point was language. She once felt ashamed of struggling with Guaraní, a language deeply tied to identity and belonging. As a Kid Teacher, Michelle reclaimed her confidence by helping others learn.
In teaching Guaraní, she strengthened her skills—and reconnected to who she is.
When Jorge learned he had received a Becas Arandú scholarship, the news was shared in front of his mother. She immediately burst into tears. The scholarship meant that Jorge could continue his studies with less financial pressure and more hope for the future.
Today, he is successfully progressing through the Police Academy and completing professional internships.
At 15, Yeruti entered GLOW as a shy and insecure teenager. Through mentorship and leadership opportunities, she developed the confidence to speak publicly and inspire other girls.
At a community event celebrating Women and Girls in Science, she stood before a crowd and shared how GLOW had become a safe place where she discovered her voice.

Why This Matters
Statistics tell us how many children we reach. Stories tell us what that reach means. For a child, impact is personal.
“Thank you, Superniños! I like how you teach more than they teach at my school.”
— Alexis Areco, Age 8, Superniños student
