Shakira, the Pies Descalzos Foundation, and LCI announce the partnership with LCI Education Foundation, for the construction of the project Institución Educativa Fundación Pies Descalzos El Bosque - Barranquilla.
The LCI Education network, with headquarters in Canada, presence in 5 continents and 22 higher education campuses, firmly believes that contributing to education is the way to rebuild the social fabric; just as in Pies Descalzos we believe that every peso invested in education is multiplied, is a good investment and has the best returns for the economy of a country.
With these same convictions, we seek to benefit 53,000 inhabitants and 1,000 students with the construction of a new school in the El Bosque neighborhood in the city of Barranquilla.
All children in our country have the talent and desire, now we just need more and better education. We can all be the support so that more children in Colombia can start their lives on the same starting line and be the citizens that Colombia needs to build a future of PEACE.
This is the kind of alliances that make us proud, finding organizations that believe in our country and are committed to actions that change the lives of the most vulnerable: our children. Thanks to LCI Education Foundation and thanks to each partner of this new project! Let's continue to build change among all of us to work for the fair Colombia we all dream of.
