They are determined to improve education for the young people in the area. The Daniele Agostino Derossi Foundation (DADF) helped this region with the creation of a middle school and, along with MEF, supports a number of scholarships and teacher supplements.
In 2016 MEF received a grant from the DADF to secure safe housing for students from Entre Ríos who attend high school in Sayaxché, but to also to explore and start the process of creating a private high school for the region.
Despite years of great efforts on part of the Asociación, the Guatemalan Ministry of Education had not answered the multiple appeals from the group to bring a government-funded high school to Entre Ríos.
