THE TEMPORARY PRE-SCHOOL CENTER IS NOW OPEN!
Because their is an urgent need for infrastructure to receive the children and no time to wait until we find the funds to start building our center, we are renting a small building in Ocotal where children can now play and begin their first education. This gives us the best motivation to find the funds to build them the best center to grow and learn.
OUR STORY
Working Towards a Better Tomorrow
EcoCasa Nicaragua emerged out in 2016 after the engagement of Marion Girard in an AIESEC global volunteering program in a school in Ocotal. What she saw there and the great people she met, motivated her to support the community, and a desire for actions. Established in 2016 in Switzerland, the organization first project was the construction of a house for a family who was living in a really precarious situation. Contact us to learn more and get involved.
PROJECTS IN OCOTAL
Building a pre-school center in Ocotal
Event thought the construction of the house was a success, the local population in Ocotal still need our help. The education centers in Nicaragua are insufficient. We decided to go onboard another mission and build a pre-school center this time allowing kids to access early education but also their mothers, women to gain some independence. The construction will take place end of 2019.
COMPLETED PROJECT
Building a Home for a community resident in Ocotal
During the summer 2016, a motivated team of 3Â people from Switzerland went to Ocotal to complete the project of building an eco friendly home for a local family. This project was a success and the house was built within a month with the participation of the local community. Thanks to private donations we could make this construction happen. According to our believes and our mission, the house was built with few materials and was designed to be ecofriendy.
RÉGINE BUCHER
