Colombia

Across Colombia, we partner with dedicated leaders who are transforming the lives of vulnerable children through education, mentorship, and faith. Each initiative provides not only practical support but also hope for a brighter, purpose-driven future.

Pancubien (Founded by Arnulfo Cuero): In one of Colombia’s most challenging communities, Pancubien rescues children from the dangers of drugs, gangs, and life on the streets. Through mentorship, care, and a safe environment, Arnulfo gives young lives a second chance. Recently, Pancubien raised $50,000 to expand its facility—a major milestone—but more space is urgently required to reach children still at risk.

The Lighthouse Academy (Led by Superintendent Lorenzo Gonzalez): Since 2005, The Lighthouse Academy in Bogotá has provided safe, high-quality education for children from preschool through 11th grade. Currently serving 138 students—many from impoverished backgrounds—the academy is more than a school; it is a refuge and support system for children facing difficult home and family situations. Lorenzo and his team are working to expand capacity so that no child is ever turned away due to financial or space limitations.

Liceo Betel (Directed by Javier Marín): Also in the Bogotá area, Liceo Betel is a beacon of academic excellence and spiritual growth. Serving children from underserved communities, the school nurtures integrity, opportunity, and hope for the future. To meet the growing needs of its students, Liceo Betel is seeking support for classrooms, materials, and student care.

How You Can Help

Together, we can build a future filled with purpose—one child at a time.
