Ladrillo Verde Supporting Rural Families

Dear Friend,

We send you our warmest greetings from Ladrillo Verde – Supporting Rural Families, a project of Hearts of Gold Foundation, with special appreciation for the continued collaboration we have built with the community of Quingeo.

First and foremost, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for your invaluable support. Thanks to your generosity, we have been able to work closely with the community, listen to their needs, and walk alongside families facing vulnerability with respect, commitment, and care.

Actions and Achievements

Through this close, community-based work, and with your support, we were able to carry out several meaningful actions, including:

• The distribution of clothing for children, youth, and adults, providing warmth, dignity, and relief to many families.
• The delivery of medicines to support the local community health center, helping address common illnesses and urgent medical needs.
• The sharing of books, toys, dental hygiene kits, and other essential donations that brought joy, care, and support to children and families.
• Emotional and educational support activities for children and young people, fostering well-being and emotional recovery.
• Rehabilitation of community plots using natural fertilizers and reforesting eroded areas.

Each of these actions reflects the trust built with the community of Quingeo and the power of collective effort made possible through your solidarity.

Challenges We Continue to Face

Despite these important efforts, we have also faced significant challenges in supporting this rural community, especially in the area of healthcare.

Due to the remote location and distance of the community, doctors and medical professionals are often unable to visit frequently, making access to consistent healthcare services very limited for many families. This situation continues to affect vulnerable children, older adults, and families who require ongoing medical attention.

We are actively working to find solutions to improve healthcare access and strengthen medical support for the community in sustainable ways.

At the same time, we are currently planning psychology-based sessions and community support activities focused on reducing violence, strengthening emotional well-being, and promoting healthier family and community relationships. We believe mental health support and emotional education are essential tools for building safer and more peaceful communities.

Looking Ahead to 2026

As we move into 2026, we are excited to share that we are actively developing multiple projects in close coordination with the community of Quingeo, with a strong focus on:

• Protecting water sources and increasing access to safe water for more families.
• Strengthening long-term food security and sustainable livelihoods.
• Continuing to support children and youth through education, health, and emotional well-being initiatives.
• Expanding community support and healthcare access whenever possible.

We remain in ongoing dialogue with the community to ensure that our actions respond effectively, respectfully, and sustainably to their most pressing needs.

The road ahead is long, but together we are building something meaningful. By supporting Ladrillo Verde, you are helping rural families strengthen their resilience and create a future rooted in dignity, sustainability, and hope.

Thank you for continuing to walk alongside us.

Together, we are stronger.

With deep gratitude,
