A heartbeat born more than 15 years ago

We are a non-profit foundation that began with the mission of Erika Oquendo and her family to contribute a "grain of sand" toward promoting happiness in Colombia.

Today, we are a network of friends across the U.S. and Colombia united by a single purpose: to fill the hearts of children and seniors in the most remote areas with joy.

Our history

We were born more than 15 years ago, driven by the mission of Erika Oquendo and her family to contribute a "grain of sand" toward promoting happiness for many children and seniors in Colombia. Throughout the years, we have reached different communities, impacting the lives of low-income families along the roads of Urabá, Antioquia.
Throughout the years, we have reached different communities, impacting the lives of low-income families along the roads of Urabá, Antioquia. Over time, we have successfully inspired individuals and companies to join our purpose: bringing joy to the hearts of many communities—especially to our greatest treasures, the children and elderly in areas far removed from the comforts of the city.
