The municipality of Tola is a rural area that is subject to the hardships of poverty and located in the second most impoverished country in the western hemisphere. Fortunately, this area has many positive attributes, with good agricultural land, hard-working kind people, and a beautiful coast that is already drawing interest from international tourists and investors. Unfortunately, many of the citizens of Tola do not receive the most basic forms of education and they often miss opportunities for employment and private enterprise that an education allows, leaving them less able to take advantage of their region’s opportunities. The students, schools, and citizens of Tola are not lacking ambition, but resources, and PRE's work involves giving communities the tools for them to change their educational opportunities themselves through community organized work, and the assistance with physical donations of key supplies crucial to elevating the quality of Tola's education.
