Who we are
We are a nonprofit organization located in the Barrio Egipto of Bogotá, committed to Christian values and to social service for people in vulnerable situations: children and adolescents, single mothers heading their households, and people seeking a second chance after leaving prison or gang crime.
We also work to transform precarious dwellings into dignified homes, we empower the community through sustainable community tourism, and we promote organic urban agriculture as a path toward food self-sufficiency.

One neighborhood, one story, one community.
What we do
Comprehensive impact on 7 fronts
Bogotá — Barrio Egipto
The heart where it all began
In one of Bogotá's most vulnerable neighborhoods, we opened our first house in 2002. Every day, over 120 children come to eat, study and be heard.
+120 children served every day
Palmira — Río Nima, Valle del Cauca
A second house, the same mission
Six years ago we expanded to Palmira, accompanying children from displaced families who arrived from Chocó. The same love, a new home.
