Who are we?
Mariposas Amarillas ('yellow butterflies' in Spanish) is a small Colombian grassroots organization
committed to supporting disadvantaged children and families around Santa
Marta, Colombia. We provide services (education, workshops, recreation), supplies and information on nutrition, education, and
childcare to families in Santa Marta’s under-served neighbourhoods.
The foundation continues to grow, but we need your help! We are always looking for international and local volunteers to teach our after-school classes or work on our social programs, which include literacy and English classes for adults, health workshops and sex education. We are also always in need of volunteers to help with marketing, publicity, social media and fundraising. |

Our mission
Our mission is to help the children and families we work with access the tools they need to fight poverty and social injustice. By empowering them through education, information and health support, we give them the chance to spread their wings and reach their full potential as proud, enthusiastic and effective members of their communities.
We are also always very much in need of donations. Donations of as little as $10 USD can help us purchase school supplies, building materials or health support resources for children and adults in need. Looking for a longer commitment? Become a sponsor and change a child’s life. If you'd like to organise a fundraising event to put towards building our new school, please email us. Donate online.
