Red de apoyo – "EL COHETE"

WHAT DOES IT CONSIST OF?
El Cohete was created with the aim of forming a support network for all young people who, after turning 18 and leaving the foster houses, find themselves in need of support in some aspect of their lives: employability, finding accommodation, health care, legal assistance...

FREQUENCY?
Varies according to the need

PURPOSE?
Foster children go through a situation of double vulnerability: not only their childhood has been hard and traumatic, but their first years as adults they must focus all their efforts on surviving.
Soñar Despierto wants to contribute to make the exit of these young people from the child protection system as atraumatic as possible and to provide them with a support network during the first years, until they manage to "take off".

SCHOLARSHIPS

WHAT DOES IT CONSIST OF?
Thanks to the sponsorship of companies and individuals, we finance the studies of teenagers that want to continue studying after leaving the foster house, but who need financial support to do so.

FREQUENCY?
Yearly.

PURPOSE?
The government covers the studies of children in foster care until they reach the age of eighteen. Our scholarship program offers them the possibility of continuing their studies upon leaving the foster care system. We try to reward the efforts of those kids who, despite their personal situation, have not given up and have believed in studying as a way to grow personally and achieve their goals.
