It all began with a trip to Colombia:
Conny was moved by the glances of innocent children living in the most unfair and impoverished conditions, She opened her heart and told herself she had to do something to change these childrens lives. She had to make the world focus on a town that had been forgotten for centuries With this in mind the Rayito De Sol Foundation was created. A trust that tries to bring hope to those who have forgotten the meaning of that word
If one woman has single handedly organized events, gathered money, made long and extenuating trips, persistently called people and did whatever it took to help the under privilege children in Choco, Colombia and Palm Beach, Florida She thought to herself, with the assistance of others, she could make a difference.
I ask that you look around you, take a minute from your busy day and see what you own and what you receive take the time to review our pictures and videos and let our children touch your heart
Help us make a difference in these
childrens livesand help them make
their dreams come true.
Mission:
To contribute to the development of under privilege Children’s through educational and nutritional programs. To support single abused mothers through training and birth control programs.
Vision:

We firmly believe education is the best tool to becoming successful. Through these training programs we will be giving these single mothers a greater chance for a better job opportunity.
Our Dreams for a town who’s had fewer opportunities:
Building of a sporting and activities center in Quibdo who is the capital of Choco whose establishment does not offer a place for children and teenagers to develop and grow accordingly.
Enable community dining areas to provide a healthy and balanced diet.
Through the planting of “Borojo” An exotic, known for its nutritious high energizing and appetizing fruit create job opportunities.
