Mission

Hogar de Cristo Foundation, over 81 years of transforming lives and creating new opportunities for those most disadvantaged in CHILE. The Hogar de Cristo tackles poverty holistically by organizing its services into seven modalities that form a continuum of protection, support, and inclusion. We serve children, youth, adults, older adults, people experiencing homelessness, and people with mental disabilities. We focus on hard work and prioritize directing our major efforts toward those living in severe poverty (the hardest poverty), in other words, those affected by both monetary and multidimensional poverty, who number nearly 1.2 million people in Chile (6.1%). For them, the organization takes proactive action, often anticipating the State's efforts with innovative, high-quality solutions to overcome poverty and social exclusion. The work is backing efficient models that deliver consistent results and experiences, with replication and scaling by the State.
