Who We Are at Angeles de Medellin
History
Marcos moved from New York to Colombia in 2005 and launched the foundation soon thereafter. Along with his volunteers, Marcos has been working tirelessly to help the people of Medellin every day since.
Who Volunteers Are and What is Required
Everyone is welcome. Some volunteers stay for one day. Others get hooked and return day after day and year after year. There is never any commitment required, so there is something for everyone. We have had volunteers from 108 countries....looking for 109.! New volunteers will pay a small initial donation (150 COP, approximately $35 USD), then the foundation is completely free to attend every day after.
What We Do
We provide lunch for seniors, school supplies for children, and English and sewing classes for mothers looking to learn a new trade. There are also special projects that include supplying clean water for small villages outside Medellin and providing toys and groceries for orphanages.
