COLOMBIANITOS ("Little Colombians") is a non-profit organization that helps Colombian children who have been victims of the war and violence that has affected Colombia during the last 40 years.  Colombianitos was incorporated in the State of Georgia in June 2001 and is recognized as tax-exempt by the IRS under section 501(c)(3).

COLOMBIANITOS is a response to a senseless war that mostly affects children. Children who have never known peace and who want the opportunity to receive an education and grow up in a calm, peaceful environment, in harmony with their families, community, and country.

COLOMBIANITOS is dedicated to reestablishing the confidence and abilities that these children need to live a normal life, educate them and empower them to help themselves, relieve their pain, and heal their wounded bodies and hearts.

COLOMBIANITOS is dedicated to children because they represent the future of Colombia.  You can learn more about COLOMBIANITOS here
