EMI is partnering with Children of Pure Heart to design the masterplan for Saint Mary of the Angels Academy in El Triunfo, Ecuador.
Children of Pure Heart was a project founded in 2003. Their mission is to provide care, healthcare, education and general social assistance in a Christian based environment to the orphaned and abandoned children living in extreme poverty.
Project Scope
The purpose of the project is to build an educational institution with Christian values, that fosters ecological awareness and community integration.
The educational institution Saint Mary Of The Angels Academy, aims to offer a comprehensive education-training project to provide a better quality of life in compliance with the guidelines of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Ecuador and inspired by international educational models and the Christian faith.
In addition to academic excellence, The Academy will offer extracurricular programs such as sports, music, and arts to promote the integral development of all members of the community.
The campus design should be environmentally efficient and ecologically friendly to make a positive impact on the planet.
An additional component of the project that would assist in community integration is the construction of a chocolate factory that actively involves small local farmers in the area. The ministry also wants to serve the community through healthcare services by having a medical center on campus.
