About Oasis of Hope

Oasis of Hope is located in Santa Marta, one of Colombia's least-educated cities and a place where most of its people struggle to have their basic needs met due to conditions such as water scarcity and insufficient sanitation. Oasis of Hope opened its primary school in one of the city’s most impoverished neighborhoods in 2002 and has been helping raise children out of economic, social and physical poverty ever since.

"There is no greater importance in Colombia than the liberation of thousands of children from the hardship and injustice of poverty. The partnership with Brighter Children has hugely enhanced our ability to raise the quality of life of these needy children. Primary education is pivotal in helping students break free from the cycle of poverty they were born into, in most cases, through no fault of their own."

— David Taylor, Founder of Oasis of Hope
