50 to 100 children are served food at Semillas de Amor each day by three caring volunteers. For most children, this is their only meal of the day. Seeds of Love is in a part of Cartagenia called "New Colombia" where children and families have been displaced due to war and violence in the region over many years. Most of the children served in this center have handicaps and their caretakers are struggling to provide the basics for themselves and their children. A generous donation from our Southern Cross Chapter in Canada provided the "seed" money to begin a chicken industry which is proving to be very successful for this home and their desire for self-reliance.
