Logo of the Norwalk/Nagarote Sister City Project

The Norwalk/Nagarote Sister City Project (N/NSCP) is a partnership between the people of Nagarote, Nicaragua, and the Greater Norwalk Area of Connecticut,[1] focusing on sustainable community development and breaking the cycle of poverty for the most disadvantaged children and youth in Nagarote.

Since its founding in 1986, N/NSCP created Nagarote’s public library, provided an ambulance, built houses for hurricane victims, and provided relief after the earthquake of 2014.[2] In 2003, the Project initiated its Youth Afterschool Program that offers classes in English, computers, sewing, theater, martial arts,[3] sustainable farming and community service. In 2011, N/NSCP built a community center, classrooms and offices in Nagarote.[4] In 2014, N/NSCP sponsored 82 scholarships for students from first grade through college; provided support for 52 students at the Jeronimo Lopez preschool; administered a Youth Afterschool Program to 167 at-risk teens; and ran an afterschool program for 98 children ages 6 to 11.[5]

N/NSCP also operates a model sustainable farm in Nagarote which grows the fruits and vegetables used in their programs, and which also serves as a laboratory for classes on sustainable farming and environmental issues.

N/NSCP has a board of directors based in Norwalk, Connecticut, and an advisory board of local community leaders in Nagarote. The project is operated in Nagarote by a staff field director and approximately 20 full- and part-time local residents. N/NSCP is a 501(c)3.[6]
