Shapers For Venezuela Manizales

Sueños sin Fronteras is a humanitarian assistance project that seeks to combat xenophobia, integrate Venezuelan migrants and refugees into the Manizales community, and attend to their basic needs.

Sueños sin Fronteras was born from the high flow of Venezuelan migrants who began to arrive in our city, occupying the streets with their children in precarious conditions.

Goals

• Combat xenophobia through integration campaigns between the Manizales population and migrants.


• Attend to basic needs such as food, clothing and recreation for this population through support from our allies.

Outcomes

We have impacted around 1,700 people with the various activities that have been carried out throughout the project (over a year and a half) and financially we have invested 15,500 USD.

Timeline

The project started in Jan 2019 and is expected to continue as long as the Venezuelan migration continues.
