About The Program

Children in the areas where the Program operates, grow up under very difficult circumstances. Poverty, drugs, alcohol and neglect is part of their daily lives. The name Heaven-on-Earth symbolizes a piece of “heaven” which the Program aims to give these little learners through quality education, extra attention and loads of love. Through the Program the children receive a firm foundation, both educational and spiritual.
