Riverside community in Chocó

Community & Infrastructure

Rebuilding a bridge means reconnecting a town with the school, the hospital and the market.

The challenge

Towns cut off

The earthquake damaged 198 roads, 34 vehicle bridges, 12 pedestrian bridges and 71 aqueducts. In a region like Chocó, which depends on river transport and fragile paths, this meant that entire subregions — San Juan, Baudó — were left isolated just when they needed help most.

Rebuilding this infrastructure is not a luxury: it is what allows a doctor to arrive, a child to go to school and a family to get food.

What we rebuild

The infrastructure that sustains life

🌉

Roads and bridges

We restore the access routes that connect communities to essential services.

🚰

Water and sanitation

We rehabilitate aqueducts to restore access to clean water and reduce the health risk.

🏘️

Community spaces

We recover the community centers that serve as gathering points, shelter and organization.

With the community, not for the community

Rebuilding with local hands

We prioritize local labor and materials. That way every project leaves behind jobs, knowledge and a sense of ownership that makes the reconstruction last.

Colombia rises with everyone's help

As a volunteer, partner or donor, there is a place for you in the reconstruction.
