What first started as a small group of individuals banding together in the heart of the Covd-19 lockdown to deliver bags of emergency food supplies, has developed into something much bigger – The foundation Help Colombia!
Throughout Colombia, there are countless sectors (‘barrios’) where residents are living far below the poverty line and lack the most basic human survival needs like food and shelter. This coupled with limited education, unemployment, adolescent pregnancy, domestic violence, and a strong presence of gang activity, makes it almost impossible for these communities to break free of the poverty trap. With the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020, these already vulnerable communities are now in even more of a desperate need of help.
Help Colombia’s mission is to feed, shelter, and educate Colombia’s most vulnerable communities. We believe that by first helping to ensure their most basic needs are met, we can give them the opportunity to focus on both personal and economic growth. This in turn will help residents to actively participate in building stronger, more self-sufficient communities.
When you DONATE to Help Colombia, your funds will go directly to improving one of the following 4 key areas in the barrios: Nutrition, Shelter, Education, & Community.
Our Core Values:
On behalf of all of us at Help Colombia, THANK YOU for your donation. You’ve brought us one step closer to our vision of a Colombia where at minimum everyone has a roof over their head and three solid meals per day.
