                  ENGLISH VERSION

 ********************************************************

In 2000, after four years of organizing delivery of Christmas gifts for poor children, a group of friends decided to create a long-term project to help children and youth in Colombia. In November 2000, the ICBF granted legal personality, which gave Asovivamos the legal possibility to have children under its protection.

In 2001 we found a house that met the quality standards required by the ICBF and finished the formalities to get the operating license. Additionally, we started development of our Institutional Care Plan.

In 2002 we received a very special family within the first group of children: Diego, Alejandro, Jennifer and Leidy (The Rodriguez). Today they are young adults and each of them is a reflection of the values imparted from our home and they are source of pride and satisfaction for the group of founders and partners who support us.

 In 2013 we joined GlobalGiving in order to benefit from their experience and training   to receive online donations. Our experience with Global Giving has allowed us to raise US$ 13,000 from April 2013 to date. We have five people who make us monthly donations. We invite you to set up a monthly donation. You only need to go to http://goto.gg/13344. A monthly donation of US$ 20 (about Col$ 59,000) will help to support the education, nutrition, health and sport for a young beneficiary in our house.

 We want to express our gratitude to all who have supported Asovivamos children through these 15 years. Your donations continue to make a significant help to improve the impact on the lives of our children. Thanks to your continuous support, our children have access to the wonderful learning environment, nutrition, and resources that are provided by our program. 

It's nice to see how each of the young people who have been with us, are playing their role in society as responsible and committed individuals.

 We have a long way to go. We value our results during these 15 years, but we assume them with discretion and with the desire to move forward and be better every day.

Thank you very much for helping us.  At Vivamos we build future with love and passion.

 Sincerely yours,

 Asociación Vivamos

  ********************************************************

El en año 2000, después de cuatro años de organizar entregas de regalos en Navidad para niños pobres, un grupo de amigos tomó la decisión de crear un proyecto de largo plazo que ayudara a los niños y jóvenes en Colombia. En noviembre del año 2000 el ICBF otorgó la personería jurídica, que le dio la posibilidad legal a Asovivamos para tener niños bajo su protección.

En el año 2001 encontramos una casa que cumplía con los estándares de calidad exigidos por el ICBF y terminamos los trámites de licencia de funcionamiento. Adicionalmente, iniciamos la creación de nuestro Plan de Atención Institucional.

En el año 2002 recibimos una familia muy especial dentro del primer grupo de niños: Diego, Alejandro, Jennifer y Leidy (Los Rodriguez). Hoy ellos son adultos jóvenes y cada uno de ellos es el reflejo de los valores que se inculcan desde nuestra casa y son motivo de orgullo y satisfacción para el grupo de fundadores y los asociados que nos continúan apoyando. 

En el año 2013 nos vinculamos con GlobalGiving con el objetivo de aprovechar la experiencia y capacitación que nos ofrece para recibir donaciones en línea. Nuestra experiencia con GlobalGiving nos ha permitido recaudar US$13,000 desde Abril de 2013 hasta la fecha. Tenemos cinco personas que nos hacen donaciones mensuales. Lo invitamos a que configure una donación mensual.  Solo necesita ir a http://goto.gg/13344. Una donación mensual de US$20 (aprox col$ 59000) servirá para apoyar la educación, nutrición, salud y deporte de un joven beneficiario de nuestra casa.

Nos gustaría expresar nuestro sentimiento de gratitud hacia todos los que han apoyado a los niños de Asovivamos a través de estos 15 años. Sus donaciones siguen siendo una importante ayuda para mejorar el impacto en la vida de nuestros jóvenes. Gracias a su apoyo constante, nuestros niños tienen acceso a un mejor entorno de aprendizaje,   nutrición y los recursos que son proporcionados por nuestro programa.

Es agradable ver como cada uno de los jóvenes que nos acompañaron están desempeñando su papel en la sociedad como individuos responsables y comprometidos.

Nos falta mucho camino por recorrer, valoramos nuestros resultados durante estos 15 años, pero los asumimos con discreción y con el deseo de seguir adelante en una tarea de ser cada día mejores.

En Asovivamos construimos futuro con amor y pasión.
