We’d like to share an important next step in Bolivia.
As we welcome a new year, I want to begin with a big thank you to our donors. Together, you not only reached our end-of-year giving campaign goal, you nearly doubled it!
This incredible outpouring of generosity, love, and partnership helps us move into the year ahead with renewed purpose and confidence.
I also want to thank the entire SFK international family, including the board of directors, advisory board, admin, school leaders, teachers, facilitators, trainers, parents, and students.
We might be far geographically and speak different languages, but we are all connected by the same passion and vision of empowering children to know their essence and the power of their Light.It’s been an honor to work with you this year, and I’m looking forward to continuing.
My wish for all of us in 2026 is to keep creating and working with a clear, peaceful, and connected state of being, one that can withstand the noise, distractions, and fears of the world around us.
Wishing you a truly blessed New Year.

Beginning in May 2026, students will start SFK Level One: Winning in the Game of Life™, with materials already in place to support delivery.
This work is being led on the ground by local trained SFK facilitators, working closely with teachers to integrate these tools into daily classroom practice.

As SFK facilitator Ivon Alejandra Toledo Chambi shares:
“I’m motivated to facilitate SFK because it offers a concrete way to help children build the inner skills that school rarely teaches explicitly: naming emotions, calming the body, repairing relationships, and returning to learning with clarity.In the communities where we work, children often carry stress that shows up as silence, anger, or disengagement. SFK gives us language and practices that make those experiences visible, without shame and turns them into teachable moments. I’m especially excited to bring SFK into a school setting, because when teachers also learn the routines, the impact multiplies across classrooms and becomes part of the school culture.
I’m grateful to the funders who made this training possible. It’s giving us a structured, respectful, and culturally grounded approach that can reach many children and support educators at a moment when our country’s social tensions make emotional skills more necessary than ever.”

Help Us Keep Making an Impact
Help Us Keep Making an Impact
Every gift to SFK helps light the way for children worldwide. Your support makes it possible to bring social-emotional and spiritual education to kids who might otherwise never have access to these tools. Because of you, we can train educators, translate programs, create new resources, and expand our reach to communities most in need-helping children discover their inner Light and navigate life with courage, compassion, and wisdom.
Together, we can continue to empower the next generation to navigate life with confidence, compassion, and purpose.
