Established in 2007 by parents who adopted Colombian children, the Friends focus on physical plant improvements of orphanages in need that are open to outside aid, and to providing vocational and entrepreneurial training to older children who will leave government care. 100% of donations go toward projects.

		<p class="content" style="font-size:10pt;">Adoptions by Gladney, Inc., of Fort Worth, Texas <a href="http://adoptionsbygladney.org/">http://adoptionsbygladney.org/</a> has provided a grant to our Colombian non-profit Fundacion Juventud Colombiana en Riesgo for the furtherance of vocational training of older children who will not be adopted. The grant from Gladney has been an enormous help to this project.  <br /><br />
		Gladney is one of the few international adoption agencies that is licensed by the government of Colombia. The Gladney Center was one of the first agencies accredited in the U.S. as a Hague-compliant adoption agency. The Hague Convention protects children and their families against the risk of unregulated adoptions abroad and ensures that inter-country adoptions are made in the best interests of the children. The Convention also protects against unethical, unlawful and inhumane adoption practices.</p>

            <p class="content">
				We are LIVE at Fundacion Semillas de Amor in north Bogotá. This institution is the perfect place for a trial run for the knitting project: there are 75 girls, all in their teens who live there for 8 months or so. These young ladies are “at risk” because of various circumstances in their lives, such as pregnancy, drug abuse, family violence and the overlay of poverty. 
				<br /><br />
				The facility happens to have a room that was not being used. It is a good size, has a window and can accommodate three knitting machines easily. The administration at Semillas de Amor have put bars on the window and replaced the wooden door with a metal door (with a good lock) so that our machines will be safe. There is now light pink paint on the walls, colorful metal folding chairs, a table and shelving. A banner with our logo adorns the wall. 	
				<br /><br />
				Our knitting instructor has 27 years of machine knitting experience. She is forward-thinking, modern and is excited about this opportunity to share her expertise. Every knitting student is developing a portfolio of her work. There is a waiting list of girls who want to learn. 
				<br /><br />
				The girls will be able to keep their learning projects: one young lady has made a sweater for her baby son. In about two months, we can train a girl who has the aptitude and interest in a skill that she can use for the rest of her life in a self-employed small business. Eventually, we hope that our graduates will form a cooperative and be completely self-sustaining. Once our knitters are knitting to sell, our manager will take photos of their work and will put them in colorful folders for the girls: when they leave Semillas, they will have letters of introduction to possible employers, and pictures of their work. At that time we will also provide them with the opportunity to continue to knit: as we grow, we hope to install machines in a central, safe location in Bogotá. <br /><br />
				Our Colombian Fundacion has been awarded the status of provider of humanitarian services - the equivalent of US 501[c][3] status.  
				Please enjoy the videos and photographs of our project and consider donating. We have big plans and small pockets. Please help!
