The entire team of Foundation Escuela Nueva Volvamos a la Gente (FEN) would like to sincerely thank you for all your generous donations for our fundraising campaign ´´Restore the Right to Quality Education in Colombia´´ through Global Giving.
As for today and thanks to the support of all our donors, we have collected $341.71 USD. This fund will help children of the neighborhood of Egipto in Bogotá, to pursue the path that will help them fulfill their dreams.
However, FEN decided to end the campaign. We came to realization that the objective of implementing ´´Círculos para ENprender´´ was too high and too wide. The material means and the personnel resources we needed to establish this project are considerable and the Foundation Egipto con Futuro, the place where the children meet, is aware of this situation.
For this reason, we have decided to gather all the donations we have received so far and give Foundation Egipto con Futuro the materials they still need with the purpose to support the educational process of the kids from the Egipto neighborhood. Egipto con Futuro’s work, based on the assistance offered by FEN, is very useful and significant for the children. In this area, many children do not utilize their time effectively. They quickly become susceptible to a life of crime, drugs and gangs. Thanks to the different alternatives they have at Foundation Egipto con Futuro, children find new optimism for their future.
Do not worry. You will still be able to support FEN’s projects with the purpose to improve the quality of education for Colombia’s youth. As for now, FEN has made the decision to develop a new type of campaigns which will be more concise, quicker to achieve, and more efficient.
Today more than ever, within the context of our country in search for peace, quality education is the mean that secure better life´s condition for the most vulnerable.
Again, we are very thankful for your previous contributions. We will count on your support to help us restore the right to quality education in Colombia.
