Takin Back was established in 2009 with the mission of working with local community leadership and Help build up the next generation of leaders in the country of El Salvador.
Our first step was through our sponsorship program. With a focus on education, we were able to fund the schooling of 13 students, and had the honor of watching them all graduate in the fall of 2014. During our first team trip in the summer of 2013, we had the opportunity to share the gospel and provide 500 pairs of shoes in local communities we had developed relationships with over the years. During the past 9 years, we have seen God allow our small nonprofit be a part of amazing stories that display His faithfulness in the lives of the people of El Salvador. We are grateful God is allowing us to continue this adventure through our Mentorship Programs and our self sustaining Love Initiative Projects.
In October of 2012, we had the incredible blessing to visit all 13 students that we sponsor in El Salvador. We spent the week talking, praying, and laughing with them, discovering their dreams and ambitions. Visit takinback.org for more information about the students we sponsor, and check out facebook.com/takinback for more photos from the trip!
