Provide Shelter to Colombian Homeless Children

Thanks to the contributions received in 2018, we were able to provide care to 207 children, giving them food, clothing, health care, education, sports and recreation, psychological support and above all love, so they can overcome their difficulties and build their life project.

In this opportunity we want to share with you, the people who support our children, some of the results of attention during the past year. Thanks to the donations and the activities carried out, we were able to provide welfare to many abandoned or abused children, who do not have a home that can welcome them and protect them as they deserve.

With all their contributions the dreams of these children could become reality.

• Work with children in Corporacion Superarse

There were many people who donated their time or gifts so that the children of the boarding house Superarse, had gifts and love at Christmas.

Some people and companies brought food, toys, clothes and shared with them on these important dates, the children were happy and although some feel with sadness the lack of their family, the company of other people can soothe that pain a little.

We invite you to continue working this year for these children who need so many material things and especially need love and companionship. With their contributions we managed to give them during 2018 education to more than 65 children that we attended in the year, they were able to travel and have fun, they had food and nutritional control, clothing and elements of personal hygiene, fun and outdoor sports. And the best news of the year, was that one of these children was adopted by a family that took him to live in another country, guaranteeing to give him all the love he deserves and a family that will give him many possibilities to get ahead.

With your contributions, we hope that 2019 will be a year with new projects and a better quality of life for these homeless children.

With your contributions you can contribute to make the dreams of many children happy at Christmas.

Throughout the year we provide care to more than 50 children with violated rights who are exposed to situations of high psychosocial risk such as: lack of adult caregiver or abandoned children, child labor, demotivation school, exposure to situations of intrafamily abuse or sexual abuse , risk of staying on the street, among others.

Activities are carried out such as:

- Actions to promote health and prevent diseases, promotion of sexual and reproductive health, prevention of alcohol and psychoactive substances.
- Complete nutrition and healthy lifestyle habits.
- Provision of costumes and supplies for the school.

- Advice to the family or support network link to give continuity to all these processes from home.

HELP US TO CHANGE HIS REALITY !!!

"I am Pablo, I am 12 years old, and I have 2 small brothers of 11 years and 10 years, since 4 months ago we live in the internship of Superarse, for our mother and stepfather, they have no work and can not take care of us, we have suffered a lot with they. But since we are in Superarse, we live very differently. Last month in our school vacations, we participated in the "Friendly Families of Sopetran" program together with other children who live in the internship, we traveled to Sopetran, a small town that is 2 hours from Medellin, there several volunteer families received us and each child stays with a family for 15 days, we were together for being brothers, with the Rengifo Family we share a lot, they have a 12-year-old son and he became our friend, and cousin and uncles live very close to them, all the time they are together, they made a party for us, we celebrated the father's day, we saw the soccer world cup games together, we had many family experiences that in our house we could not live. They made us feel as if we were really their children and they gave us a lot of love and peace. We would like to be able to return in the next vacations".

Like this story, every child who lives with us in the boarding school is happy for a few days, living with a family that welcomes him with love. We have many children who have no family because they were abandoned or are orphans, and others like these 3 brothers who were mistreated in their families of origin. To develop this program, we need money. Support us with contributions to make children's dreams come true!!!

In this special month, our children pay homage to their mothers, who despite facing difficult life situations, always fight for them.

In Corporación SUPERARSE, we work and guarantee the rights of children, at the same time we work educating their families so that they also guarantee those rights. Many of the mothers attend these trainings, always looking for the best for their children, although for many it is not easy, since sometimes they are also "victims" and their rights are violated, due to the difficult family or socioeconomic situation in the who live.

All mothers have something special, although due to their difficulties they do not participate in the labor market and do not always have their own income, they live in conditions of poverty at family level and often have less power to decide on the destination of family resources. . This puts them in a disadvantaged position and if they do not have the support of a partner, they become heads of family and face alone the family's financial needs, in many cases without preparation, without study and without experience to obtain a job. of quality and well paid.

Most of the children who attend the Corporación Sobre Survive experience this type of family, however, for them there is no better hug and a more magical formula than that of their mothers or grandmothers and aunts, who cure everything, in times of illness and sadness.

That is why in this month we recognize those efforts, sometimes less evident than at other times, but convinced that the hand of the Corporation OVERCOMING can help them so that their children and themselves can move forward.

In the month of April and as part of the strengthening of the mothers and grandmothers of the children, we began to invite them to an easy cooking class, teaching them the importance of varying the food and taking advantage of the products of the harvest.

We invite you this month to dedicate these contributions to those mothers and grandmothers who, although in unfavorable conditions, never stop fighting for their children!!!
