Comprehensive Care for 120 Children and Youth, Caracas

By Hogar Bambi Venezuela

At Hogar Bambi Venezuela, for over 28 years, we have provided a temporary and safe home to more than 4,000 children and adolescents in situations of social risk or abandonment. Our mission is to offer comprehensive care to restore their fundamental rights, with the goal of reintegrating them into their families of origin, placing them in foster homes, or, in specific cases, legally facilitating their adoption.
A multidisciplinary team, dedicated and full of love for each of these children, works tirelessly 24/7, 365 days a year to ensure every child in our care regains their essential rights.

During this period, we highlight:

• Education: 55 children and youth were enrolled in school, with over 160 hours dedicated to education and academic reinforcement.
• Nutrition: Over 18,000 meals and 12,000 snacks were served.
• Health: More than 300 medical and psychological consultations were provided.
• Recreation: Over 10 recreational activities were organized to promote social and emotional development.
• Holiday Celebrations: Special holiday activities were held, including the Venezuelan tradition of gifting each child new clothing and shoes for December 24th and 31st, along with multiple presents for our children.

We extend our gratitude to donors for their contributions and for recognizing the importance of providing holistic care that addresses the physical, emotional, and social needs of children and adolescents, ensuring their full and happy development.

Integral care is at the core of Hogar Bambi Venezuela’s mission to provide a safe, respectful, and loving environment to each of the 120 children and youth under our protection. This work is possible thanks to the generous donations of our allies.

During this period, we have provided all our children with their medical checkups, vaccines, and treatments. We have also provided therapy sessions. Regarding food, each child living in Hogar Bambi receives three balanced meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and two healthy snacks every day, from a menu designed by a professional nutritionist.

Currently, we have 58 children attending private schools, during this period, they received additional after-school tutoring in subjects such as Math, English, Computer Science, and more. We aim to provide them with a high-quality education beyond the standard curriculum. During these months, we also provide vocational training to prepare the older children for life as adults.
