Kogi Seywiaka School Solar Panel Initiative
We are striving to bring solar-powered electricity to the Kogi Seywiaka community. Together with the solar energy company Hybrytec, we are working to repair a government-installed solar energy system in Seywiaka. The Kogi need your help! To aid this cause, consider donating money to help finance the project. Help us energize the Kogi!
Empowering Pedro to pursue his career
In Progress
Pedro wants to be an accountant. He has already graduated from Kogi High School and is pursuing his online education at the same time he works for the Kogi Resguardo in Santa Marta making sure that his community has a voice. To pay for his studies he has mastered the art of bead jewelry. We are supporting him to pursue his dream by selling and promoting his art in the USA.
Color de Esperanza
Color de Esperanza is a crafts project by Paola Benrey based in Bogota, which helps empowering single moms to provide for their families by working from home on its beautiful handmade collection.
Empowering Milena to make a difference
Kogi women are rarely given the tools to lead a meaningful life. At CFC Youth, we want to change that. We want to give Kogi women a purpose in life outside of cooking and caring for their children. Towards this goal, we are training Milena, a Kogi woman, to occupy an administrative role at the Seywiaka school. Furthermore, want to help fund her education in order to better prepare her for her new duties.
Caring for Seywiaka
The Seywiaka school is responsible for educating and caring for around 100 Kogi students. However, the community faces a number of challenges that endanger the students' wellbeing. As such, our aim is to aid in the general improvement of living conditions in Seywiaka. Whether it be providing medicinal equipment or school supplies, we are working to devise an improvement plan for Seywiaka.
