Reincorporated NFP

In 2023, Reincorporated awarded a grant to Fundación Restaurants On Mission in Medellín, Colombia, to support the internally displaced Embera indigenous community. Throughout the year, the program successfully delivered a range of essential services. It offered educational assistance to 20-25 children, who attended 4-5 days a week, and provided nutritional support within this educational program, distributing over 3,000 meals. Additionally, approximately 20 pregnant and lactating mothers received weekly support through educational programs and practical tools tailored to their needs. The initiative also organized three extensive medical campaigns, which offered both medical consultations and necessary medications, benefiting over 222 Embera individuals. Moreover, a fair trade workshop was established to train the Embera in the ancestral craft of bead-based jewelry, ensuring they received fair wages for their work. Overall, this grant positively impacted over 400 families within the Embera community.

Fundación Sueños y Huellas provides comprehensive support through two primary programs in Medellín: Niñez en Familia: This program is dedicated to supporting children living in tenement houses by offering integrated services that include nutrition, education, and safety measures. In 2023, the program successfully supported 33 children from tenement houses, 66 low-income parents, 37 siblings, and 17 other indirect family beneficiaries. This holistic approach ensures that children receive the care and resources necessary to foster a stable and supportive environment for growth and development. Una Mano en el Camino: This initiative focuses on young women aged 16 to 24 who have completed drug rehabilitation programs. It extends support to those at risk from past experiences of sexual exploitation, sexual abuse, and extreme poverty. In 2023, the program engaged 103 participants, including 15 new entrants and 88 graduates. The program offers essential support and training to help these young women navigate and sustain their new lifestyles after rehabilitation. It includes comprehensive therapeutic support with 742 individual sessions covering psychology, family dynamics, economics, employment, and education, aimed at providing a well-rounded approach to overcome the challenges these women face. Together, these programs strive to empower vulnerable populations in Medellín by addressing their immediate needs and equipping them with the skills and support necessary for long-term success.
