Colombia ranks among the nations with the most pronounced income inequality globally. This stark imbalance in the distribution of wealth and earnings translates into restricted access to resources and opportunities for a substantial portion of the population. Additionally, improper practices across various levels of society can divert resources away from those most in need, exacerbating disparities in access to essential services.
Natural disasters pose a threat to the health, safety, and shelter of thousands of people in Colombia, particularly in the poorest and most vulnerable parts of the country. Crops, factories, and businesses are also at risk. These challenges make disaster preparedness and emergency management planning essential.

In regions of Colombia marked by a legacy of armed conflict, rural communities frequently grapple with food insecurity. The turmoil associated with conflict disrupts agricultural activities, forces displacement from homes, and fosters an atmosphere of instability, all of which combine to hinder residents' access to an adequate amount of healthy, nutritious food.
Since 1982, Food For The Poor has actively fought the causes of poverty in Latin America and the Caribbean. Recognizing the urgent need for transformation, we have developed programs that go beyond immediate relief. Through community development outreach and fostering self-reliance, we provide sustainable solutions. Join us in funding these programs to turn despair into resilience, promoting health, self-reliance, and breaking the cycle of poverty with simple, effective ideas that work.
Make a meaningful impact in the lives of Colombian families. Fund our operations so we can provide hunger and poverty relief assistance. Together, we can empower families to become self-sufficient and build stronger communities through sustainable development.
