OUR TEAM

The project is led by two high school students from St. Brendan High School in Miami, Florida, dedicated to supporting the students of Fundación Quindiana de Atención Integral.

Alejandra Garcia

Co-Founder

I’ve always believed that the power of education lies not just in textbooks or exams, but in the ability to transform lives. As an 11th grader at St. Brendan High School, I am a dedicated student with a deep passion for learning, but also for helping others achieve their fullest potential. My connection to the Fundación Quindiana de Atención Integral (FQAI) goes beyond academics—it’s deeply personal. My grandmother and aunt both worked at the school, and I grew up witnessing the incredible impact this institution has had on the lives of children with disabilities. I’ve seen how this school has become a beacon of hope for students who would otherwise be left behind, teaching them the life skills that will one day empower them to find independence and success.

The more I think about these students, the more I’m reminded of why I’m so committed to this cause. Their resilience, determination, and unwavering hope inspire me every day, and it is these qualities that fuel my dedication to ensuring they continue to have the opportunities they deserve. The FQAI is a place where children, who face unimaginable challenges, are given a chance to rewrite their futures. I know firsthand that when we support the most vulnerable in our communities, we are ultimately making the world a better place.

Natalie Sandigo

Co-Founder

I’ve always seen education as a powerful tool for transformation, not just a means to pass exams, but a way to unlock limitless possibilities. As an 11th grader at St. Brendan High School, I’m passionate about my own growth and dedicated to helping others realize and reach their full potential. Though I wasn’t born in Colombia, my experiences growing up in an underserved community taught me the importance of access to resources and the transformative power of education. With a mother who works as a special education teacher, I’ve witnessed firsthand how personalized education can empower students to overcome challenges and achieve their dreams.

When I learned about FQAI and its mission to support students with disabilities in Armenia, Colombia, I immediately felt connected to its purpose. This project is my way of giving back—not only by helping provide much-needed resources but also by showing these students that their potential is seen, valued, and supported by a global community. I am honored to dedicate my time and energy to The Brighter Tomorrow Project and to help turn these students’ challenges into stories of resilience, independence, and success.

Purpose of Donations

At Fundación Quindiana de Atención Integral (FQAI), one of the most impactful programs is the agricultural training section, where students with disabilities are taught essential farming and gardening skills. This hands-on learning not only provides them with valuable life skills, but also empowers them to pursue future employment opportunities in agriculture, which is a key path to independence for many of these students.

However, the school is currently lacking the basic tools and equipment necessary to properly run these lessons. Toolkits and gardening hats are essential for their daily work in the garden, where they grow crops and learn techniques that will directly help them in future jobs. Without these materials, students are unable to fully engage in this vital program.

By donating toolkits—such as shovels, rakes, and hand trowels—as well as gardening hats to protect from the sun, you will provide the students with the resources they need to continue their education and develop life skills that will serve them for years to come. These donations will allow them to learn in a safe, effective, and supportive environment, ensuring that they have the tools they need to succeed in farming and gardening careers. The impact of your donation extends far beyond the classroom; it’s an investment in the future of these students, and a step towards their independence and empowerment.
