Refugio Rafael
is located in the heart of a Quechua community outside the city of Cochabamba, Bolivia. People in this Andes Mountain agricultural area provide for their families through roadside markets and day labor. Living conditions in the villages are simple and electricity is limited. There may be no indoor plumbing and clothes may be washed by hand. Small vegetable gardens and chickens provide food. Meals are prepared on small propane burners.
The Refugio is a unique community support facility, staffed by local people and assisted by international partners. We provide supplemental education, economic development, medical assistance, and a secure home for families.
After School Program
The Community Center classrooms and dedicated educators provide over 100 children with homework help, tutoring, mentorship, creative play, and storytelling.
Economic Development
The refuge provides work space and mentors for artisans to develop handcrafts and goods for local and international markets.
Health and Wellness
A health and wellness program provides education and support for community members. The Health Clinic will provide medical/dental consultation.
A Secure Home
Housing units and staff provide a place where families at risk can be supported in a traditional home setting. Families receive housing, food assistance, medical, and social services.
