Wellington, FL - 1 août 2014 - Juan Pablo Romero Fuentes, le fondateur de Los Patojos, le projet partenaire de JustWorld International au Guatemala, a été choisi comme héros de CNN. La séquence est diffusée sur CNN de ce soir à lundi et peut également être consultée en ligne à l'adresse suivante : https://www.cnn.com/2014/07/31/world/cnnheroes-romero/. L'émission présente le programme de Romero Fuentes, qui offre des programmes éducatifs, nutritionnels, sanitaires et culturels aux jeunes âgés de 3 à 18 ans, ainsi qu'un lieu sûr à l'abri de la violence de la rue. Tous les enfants qui fréquentent Los Patojos sont issus de familles défavorisées qui ne disposent pas des ressources nécessaires pour répondre à ces besoins fondamentaux. Grâce à l'aide de JustWorld depuis six ans, Romero Fuentes a pu aider les enfants de Jocotenango en leur apportant les compétences dont ils ont besoin pour changer leur vie. Romero Fuentes a fondé Los Patojos à l'âge de 23 ans dans la maison de ses parents et a depuis aidé plus de 1 000 enfants en leur offrant des opportunités auxquelles ils n'auraient pas eu accès autrement. "Je suis très honoré d'être reconnu comme un héros de CNN, car je pense qu'il est temps que notre communauté soit reconnue pour son programme d'éducation alternative. C'est l'occasion d'une vie de rendre visible l'invisible et d'ouvrir la porte à des enfants à l'esprit jeune pour qu'ils comprennent l'aspect positif de la vie. L'heure est à l'amour. Il est temps d'agir", a déclaré Juan Pablo.
