Who we are

The Tengo Hogar Foundation was born in February 2014 as a reaction of society to the crisis that was pushing many families with children to the brink of poverty and social exclusion. These are people like us who suddenly lost their jobs and were about to lose everything. We are volunteers that have come together around a common cause and have the desire to leave a positive mark on society.

​

Our programme

We work from a prevention approach to promote social inclusion. We help families through our program based on three essential pillars so that they can overcome their situation: we improve employability, protect childhood, and cover basic needs.​

​

WE IMPROVE EMPLOYABILITY
We guide parents to train and get a decent job or improve their current conditions. In this way, they achieve stability.

​

WE PROTECT CHILDREN
We promote the socio-educational development of children through activities that give them an open view beyond their daily environment.

​

WE COVER BASIC NEEDS
We cover specific and punctual issues so that families can continue with their recovery process.

​

We support families for a maximum period of two years for them to be back on track. Our goal is that families recover their autonomy and get ahead by themselves and do not become dependent on chronic help in time. 

​

We make a preventive, holistic, personalised and challenging intervention, embracing working, economic and social life from a family approach. We help people with potential who put a lot of effort into becoming economically independent and autonomous. They have a proactive attitude towards job search and training, as well as a strong commitment to the agreed goals.

 

70% of the families participating in our programme are single mothers, a factor that increases their vulnerability to achieve work-family balance. Each family is different and has its own story to tell, but they have a common goal: to overcome their situation and reignite their lives.
