Story

Friends of Colombia for Social Aid (FOCSA) is a registered Charity since 1977. FOCSA's secret of success is its people. They are a great group of volunteers that through their hard work and commitment to helping vulnerable children in Colombia,  raise funds  to buy and distribute medical and other essential equipment.

We receive from all parts of Colombia many requests for donations from poorly-funded hospitals and other NGOs that assist children in very scarce conditions. The requests are reviewed by a medical adviser pannel, we prioritise based on the need, type of equipment and number of children benefited by these donations and after we have make the donation, we organise regular follow-up visits to ensure the donated equipment is used adequately. Your support to this campaign will ensure we continue to donate and help more children in need in our country. Thank you for helping us to Help!

Our Impact in Colombia:

£1,2 M Medical Equipment Donated

10,000 Children Benefited

150 Donations to Hospitals & Health Centres
