Forming Lives Foundation

Forming Lives Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, as of August 2016, focusing its efforts on creating and implementing projects aimed at improving the community of Santa Cecilia, Colombia.  We want to provide education, mentoring and training programs as a tool to break the cycle of poverty. Santa Cecelia is an underdeveloped and underserved community with 10,000 residents of which 6,000 are between the ages of 0-15 years old lacking many social services. The recreation center and programs we envision will focus on community development and preparation to work and be prepared for a better future. You can contact us at 845-288-0656 or info@forming-lives.org
