Commune 13 of Medellin faces serious issues affecting children, young people, and families, including abuse, drug use, violence, and poverty. These factors create vulnerability and limit opportunities. The Dame la Mano Foundation addresses these challenges by identifying at-risk children and families and providing support in education, nutrition, psychosocial intervention, and housing. Creating a safe environment is essential for helping them thrive and breaking the cycle of violence and poverty
We are more than a foundation; we are a catalyst for change in Comuna 13. Serving 1,365 people in 2026, our project tackles systemic vulnerability with love and professional excellence. By placing families at the center of our mission-through Education, Housing, and Job Training-we are rebuilding the social fabric of Medellin.
