We are a non-profit entity, governed by the Special Tax Regime. Our higher purpose is “Transforming lives through education, activating responsible citizenship.” To materialize this missionary objective we have two lines of action: Education and Social Capital.
Education:
We firmly believe that education is the key to transforming lives. That is why, in this line of action, we strive to offer opportunities for quality education to children and young people, to develop as professionals or explore new fields of knowledge that transform their lives.
Social capital:
Through our volunteer programs we make sure to activate responsible citizenship. Our students, their families, teachers, and staff are committed to making their society a better place, with more quality opportunities for all children and young people in the sector.
JKS Scholarships
We promote access to and permanence in Higher Education for young graduates of public educational institutions in the area of influence of TCS, children of TCS staff and people from the community who require the benefit and meet the requirements, through contributions from our strategic allies. And in this way contribute to achieve their dreams by developing as professionals.
Robotics Scholarships
Thanks to our strategic allies, we can include students from public schools in our area of influence, in the FRC TCS robotics program and deepen their knowledge in this area, which dominates our current situation and needs more and more professionals.
Volunteer program
In it we involve our TCS community so that it is an active part and promoter of change within the educational context, articulating and integrating realities with our nearby community.
Solidarity Fund
We activate this fund only when an emergency disrupts the life of someone in our community. In these cases, the Foundation works as a bridge between those affected and those who want to help them overcome the catastrophe or situation that affected them.Join our higher purpose through the following options!
