Shaddai International began over 30 years ago when Anibal and Cledy Westendorff opened Colegio Shaddai to provide affordable, quality education in their community. They poured their time and resources into helping students thrive—often paying out of pocket to keep the school running.

After Anibal’s passing in 2017, Cledy carried on the vision with the help of family and friends. Inspired by their legacy, my wife and I felt called to continue their mission— expanding it beyond borders. Today, Shaddai International works to build schools rooted in academic excellence and strong values, giving hope to children around the world.
