Helping isn't hard
We help families living in campamentos (informal settlements), poor families and everyone in need in Chile.
Zinder Foundation is a charity initiative started in Santiago by journalist Lara Zinder. We visit campamentos and vulnerable neighbourhoods, deliver clothes, food and children's items, and organise activities for kids.
“Without culture there is no future” — L. Zinder
All of this is possible thanks to people, organisations and companies who donate goods, money or their time.
We bring clothes, food and baby and children's items to families living in campamentos.
We cook and deliver lunches and community meals for homeless people and migrant families.
Tutoring, languages, and arts and culture activities for children from vulnerable areas.
Campamento Dignidad, La Florida. In October 2022, together with the Japanese ladies' association Copihue-Kai and Ecocitex, we visited this settlement, home to more than 100 families, and delivered clothing for 110 women, 95 men and 70 children, plus 6 strollers, 4 cribs and 14 car seats.
We keep coming back: in January 2025 we brought clothes, plates, books and toys to Campamento Dignidad.
