En 2002, la Dra. Gabriela de la Vega se inspir\u00f3 en personas de la comunidad que ofrec\u00edan clases gratuitas de ingl\u00e9s a los residentes locales. Gabriela imagin\u00f3 que, con un enfoque en una educaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s amplia del idioma ingl\u00e9s, La Manzanilla podr\u00eda convertirse en el primer pueblo verdaderamente biling\u00fce de M\u00e9xico. Como un paso hacia la realizaci\u00f3n de esta visi\u00f3n, ella inici\u00f3 y patrocin\u00f3 clases gratuitas de ingl\u00e9s para ni\u00f1os en las escuelas p\u00fablicas de La Manzanilla, as\u00ed como clases nocturnas de ingl\u00e9s para adultos.<\/p>\n

Poco tiempo despu\u00e9s, Julie Catton se uni\u00f3 como miembro del consejo, desempe\u00f1\u00e1ndose inicialmente como Coordinadora del programa de ingl\u00e9s. A medida que Julie se involucraba m\u00e1s con las escuelas p\u00fablicas de La Manzanilla, qued\u00f3 claro que las necesidades educativas de los estudiantes iban mucho m\u00e1s all\u00e1 del aprendizaje del idioma ingl\u00e9s. Las escuelas p\u00fablicas carec\u00edan de recursos y los niveles de alfabetizaci\u00f3n de los estudiantes en su lengua materna, el espa\u00f1ol, eran sorprendentemente bajos. Adem\u00e1s, casi dos tercios de los j\u00f3venes abandonaban la escuela despu\u00e9s de la secundaria. Estas estad\u00edsticas no eran inusuales para las zonas rurales de M\u00e9xico. La experiencia de Julie fue invaluable para evaluar las necesidades educativas adicionales de los estudiantes.<\/p>\n

V\u00edctor Amezcua, matem\u00e1tico y educador originario de la Ciudad de M\u00e9xico, respondi\u00f3 ante esta brecha educativa. Fue fundamental para guiar a la organizaci\u00f3n a trav\u00e9s del dif\u00edcil y minucioso proceso de constituir una asociaci\u00f3n civil sin fines de lucro en M\u00e9xico. Posteriormente, V\u00edctor reuni\u00f3 al peque\u00f1o grupo de educadores y fil\u00e1ntropos que ya estaban involucrados en el programa de ingl\u00e9s existente y estableci\u00f3 el consejo fundador de la Fundaci\u00f3n La Catalina. El consejo incluy\u00f3 a \u00e9l mismo, Gabriela de la Vega, Pablo Mart\u00ednez del Campo Rend\u00f3n, Julie Catton y Jos\u00e9 Valent\u00edn Ch\u00e1vez Castro. Con el apoyo del consejo, V\u00edctor gestion\u00f3 la donaci\u00f3n de un terreno por parte del Ejido local para construir un centro educativo. El terreno fue otorgado en 2004 y actualmente alberga un laboratorio de c\u00f3mputo y la oficina administrativa de la FLC, una sala de usos m\u00faltiples (que incluye una mini biblioteca), un ba\u00f1o y una bodega.<\/p>\n

La organizaci\u00f3n sin fines de lucro fue nombrada \u201cFundaci\u00f3n La Catalina\u201d (FLC) en memoria de la esposa fallecida de V\u00edctor, Kathleen Amezcua, quien viajaba con frecuencia a M\u00e9xico y era llamada \u201cCatalina\u201d por el pueblo mexicano.<\/p>\n

Desde la creaci\u00f3n de la organizaci\u00f3n sin fines de lucro en 2003, la Fundaci\u00f3n La Catalina (FLC) se ha convertido en una fuerza educativa importante en La Manzanilla. Adem\u00e1s de las clases de ingl\u00e9s, ha surgido un programa de becas para estudiantes acad\u00e9micos, con m\u00e1s de 60 alumnos que actualmente reciben apoyo. Tambi\u00e9n se ofrecen programas extracurriculares, que incluyen capacitaci\u00f3n en computaci\u00f3n, clases de arte, as\u00ed como talleres sobre negocios e informaci\u00f3n universitaria. here <\/a>Haz clic para conocer m\u00e1s sobre los programas que administra la fundaci\u00f3n.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
