Child labor is common in the "20 de Julio" and "Caracolí" neighborhoods in Bogota. Children and their families work in the (illegal) markets in these parts of the city every day. Our partner organization Fundación Creciendo Unidos (FCU) has developed a program for these children (on average between 5 and 16 years). In total, 200 vulnerable children from a total of 120 families received already tailor-made guidance in 2020 and 2021.

Adoption from five countries
Every child deserves a home. Wereldkinderen is a mediator for intercountry adoption, when growing up with one’s biological family or in a foster family in one’s country of origin is not possible.
We support local organisations that prevent children from ending up on the streets or in a children’s’ home.
Please help us and support our projects or become a friend of Wereldkinderen.
