I think the right thing to do is to make an easy-to-read report addressed to those who have contributed to this campaign, to those who don't know it, and to those who are thinking of joining it.
Fundraising campaign for communities affected by the pandemic caused by Covid-19 in Medellín.
The objective of this campaign is to collect funds to send aid to different neighborhoods of Medellín, where the informal economies that sustained them collapsed and now threaten to collapse the homes of thousands of people. The campaign officially kicked off on April 1, 2020, led by NOMAD and their friends and family. After that first contribution, many more arrived like a magical shower of solidarity. At first, the campaign was directed only to the El Faro neighborhood of commune 8. Later, fortunately, the aid was so generous that we were able to contribute to other campaigns in the La Honda and La Cruz neighborhoods of commune 3 and La Torre, in the Popular 1.

Destiny of these aids were the collectives Elemento Illegal and Colectivo por Naturaleza. Both organizations work to support decent development of different communities. They achieve this through art workshops, invitations, humanitarian aid and many other activities.
materialization of the contributions was the purchase of market kits, which included non-perishable staple foods and personal hygiene items. We were also able to contribute to initiatives deworming and vaccination Of pets. In addition, in the last installment we contributed funds for the construction of the headquarters of Elemento Ilegal in The Lighthouse, The Lair. This space is thinking, among other things, as a community workshop where children will receive training on art, music and cinema. This contribution is intended to continue helping organizations that work for the future of low-income and high-talent communities in the city.
