CRIPDES San Vicente Scholarship Program

Together with a number of other committees and organizations, The Romero Interfaith Center helps to support a high school scholarship program in the San Vicente Region of El Salvador. This is the region of the country where our sister community, Las Anonas de Santa Cruz, is located.

This video was put together by the SHARE foundation, which also supports the scholarship program. It profiles four students from various communities who receive scholarships from the program to help them further their studies.

The National Gathering!

Romero Interfaith Center – the Philly Committee of U.S. El Salvador Sister Cities – was pleased to be able to host this year’s U.S.E.S.S.C. National Gathering this past weekend. It was great catching up with familiar faces and meeting new people. Our guests from El Salvador, Jose Felipe from San Jose Las Flores, Zulma from the National CRIPDES Board, and Lorenza from PROVIDA, were an amazing inspiration – who found inspiration in all of us!
