What do we do?
At Fundación Amigos del Arte we create, manage, implement and promote activities and projects focused on education and the arts, so every person can grow as a whole individual and drive their own social development.
Fundadela identifies communities living in poverty and extreme poverty, studies their immediate social situation and works with local people to create and carry out arts and education activities or projects that fit their context.
The aim is to teach and inform about citizenship, social development and human rights through activities that enrich the spirit, build knowledge and create social awareness to improve their surroundings.

Support can be financial, in kind, or through volunteering.
