Corporacion Proyecto Florecer

Proyecto Florecer’s mission is to disrupt cycles of poverty and create sustainable generational change through education, nutritional security, and community service.

Proyecto Florecer disrupts the status quo. We are a social enterprise based in Medellin, Colombia that creates generational change by promoting self-sustainability for the populations we serve. We empower the communities we work with to “receive by giving” through service to their community. We manage community kitchens and educational programs that serve the local community.

We follow a model of “education in action” and practical application in real world scenarios like event planning, restaurant and hospitality management, and entrepreneurship. We also create an environment of social inclusion for marginalized and at-risk Colombians and Venezuelans and a space for cross-cultural exchange between program participants and an international community of interns and volunteers.
