Help the community

For us, helping is a way of celebrating the life and hope of black/Afro people who continue to resist and create from their territories, their bodies, and their cultures. What for us means, making visible and denouncing the forms of oppression, discrimination and exclusion that they face due to the color of their skin, their ethnic origin or their cultural identity, as well as supporting and accompanying our demands as a people and community for the recognition of their human rights, their political participation, their access to education, health, work and land. It also means questioning and transforming the systems of domination that reproduce racism, colonialism and patriarchy.

Campaign for Lloró and Boraudó

In this campaign, about 4 tons of aid consisting of non-perishable food, clothing, mats and first aid items were collected for these communities thanks to civil society, Lloró Fujescu and the Mayor's Office of the municipality of Lloró. Already que, en November 2020 due to the heavy rains that caused the overflow of the Atrato and Andagueda rivers, hundreds of families lost their homes and belongings due to the floods.

Support campaign for Buenaventura

The violence that plagues the municipality of Buenaventura, in the department of Valle del Cauca, has generated a serious humanitarian crisis that affects thousands of people who have had to leave their homes and seek refuge in the city of Cali. According to the Ombudsman of Cali, around 500 families have been displaced from Buenaventura and Bajo Calima due to the presence and clashes between armed groups in the regions, since January 20, 2021. 

The displaced families, which make up around 2,000 people, have received humanitarian assistance from local authorities and social organizations such as the Anti-Racist Resistance Foundation, which have provided them with hygiene kits, food, temporary shelter and legal guidance. However, the situation continues to be critical and it is feared that more families will arrive in Cali, due to the escalation of violence in the territory. In addition to this, in the municipality a series of low-sea houses have been set on fire where they helped to rebuild some of them by contributing with the necessary materials and some equipment.
