Who We Are:
We are on a mission to break the cycle of poverty by providing education opportunities to children in need.
Our Mission
We are on a mission to give students an opportunity to break out of the cycle of poverty through education.
Young people want the chance to get out of the farms and fields of Baja California. They want to learn. We help make it possible. Instead of a childhood of dawn-to-dark labor, children get scholarships to finish grade school, attend high school, and even earn a university degree.
A few dollars are all that stand between a childhood spent as a field worker and a future in a trade or profession of their choice. If a family can't afford fees, pay for expensive school uniforms, or even buy pencils and paper, then the children in that family can't go to school. It's just that simple.

English classes are here and our staff members are taking the class. 📚📕📒
We love meeting the people transforming our community and establishing alliances to help them reach a wider audience.
Your donations help schools, community centers, and even pet shelters. It is a lot of work but together we can make it.

Today we say goodbye to our beloved Karen. She has been a BajaEd staff member for the past two years. Karen is a woman with a generous heart. We love her enthusiasm and dedication. It has been a pleasure to work along with you Karen. We wish you the best. 👏🙏
“I want to sponsor a student through college,” Ryan said on the phone after visiting BajaEd with his friends. He was committed to covering all educational expenses for a student who wanted to stay in school. We began searching for a high school student in need of a scholarship, a rare opportunity in Maneadero, where many students quit school early due to financial struggles. College is even more unattainable, and most students who start rarely graduate.
After interviewing several students, we met Keyla, a determined 16-year-old with dreams of becoming a forensic medic. Despite facing numerous challenges, she persevered through high school. Her day starts with a nursing internship at a hospital, followed by school classes in the afternoon, finishing around 8 p.m. At home, she does homework and rests for the next busy day. We knew Keyla was the student Ryan was looking for.
After finalizing the details, Ryan confirmed his commitment to support Keyla’s education. Though she no longer worried about school expenses, something was missing: they had not met yet. Ryan, visiting Mexico soon, expressed his desire to meet Keyla, who was excited as well. They finally met on a cold Saturday morning before Christmas, and the emotional connection was immediate. Despite the language barrier, they exchanged hugs and words of gratitude. Ryan reaffirmed his commitment to support Keyla, and as a Christmas gift, he promised her a new pair of volleyball sneakers.
Their meeting marked the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Keyla and Ryan are both grateful for each other, and we are honored to help create such meaningful experiences. Thank you, Ryan, for supporting Keyla.

This week we started our English classes. Miss Silvya Aguilar will teach children, teenagers, and adults. This program aims to help our scholars become bilingual and communicate with their sponsors. We want to break the language barrier between sponsors and scholars to help them connect. We also want to provide our students with a tool that will open doors to different cultures and job opportunities, along with several other benefits.

Last Saturday, our scholars were blessed with a Christmas party at Casa de Gracia church. For years, @nancyalvarado9 and her friends have brought presents and food to children in the community. The children write letters to an unknown godfather or godmother, waiting to be chosen by a Good Samaritan. The Good Samaritans then buy presents and give them to Nancy, who brings them down to Maneadero. Some Good Samaritans even drive to give the present to their recipients themselves.
We are grateful for everyone involved in this gift drive. Every year, you make several children happy in the Maneadero area. You are a blessing to the neighborhood and to this organization.
