Somos Hijos Del Lago is an organization that takes care of mentally handicapped children. Currently they care for about 15 children ranging in age from 1 year to 19 years. They provide this free service to families that have no other way to care for the disabled child while they are at work. Somos Hijos Del Lago strives not only to enable the parents of these children to work, but also to help the children be as independent as possible.

Volunteers are a great asset to this organization. Volunteers bring new ideas for teaching the children as well as a fresh face to interact with. Volunteers who have a big heart and a desire to help are appreciated as much as those individuals who have studied and can bring expertise to help these children grow.
