About us...
Our mission is to be Social Transformers through providential education, as one of our pillars based on the principles that we have in the Word of God, to give freedom to the individual and to the nations.
We seek to help build the character of all those reached with our programs, generating changes in the community and the formation of social leaders in the beneficiary families, as well as achieving the sustainability of this positive social impact as a legacy.

Our team
Receive a cordial greeting from the Fundación Amigos de los Cerezos, We Create Smiles, We Build Dreams. We are Social Transformers operating for eight (8) years in one of the most vulnerable areas of the country, impacting the community of Vereda Panamá, Caserío los Cerezos, of Commune 6, Corregimiento 1 of the municipality of Soacha, Cundinamarca.
This is a marginal area, receiving people in conditions of forced displacement, a situation that is reflected in the diversity of problems that its inhabitants have, such as: multidimensional poverty, illiteracy, child abuse, lack of state and private support, among others. .
Our mission with the NNA (boys, girls and young people), who reside there, is to help transform their way of thinking through totally enriching experiences, different from their usual environment.
In some of our programs we apply pedagogical methodologies with international standards, and in the case of our science and technology division, we have developed our methods based on the STEAM model (Sciences, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics), this being the methodology most appropriate for the transfer and construction of applied knowledge in the development of solutions with a view to the future, and the appropriation of new technological cultures to impact their social context.
