Our operating base since 2018: prevention, counseling and public campaigns
What it involves
«Shungo» means heart in Kichwa, an Indigenous language of Ecuador — it also stands for tenderness and love. The program delivers integrated care to children living in vulnerable conditions.
Mobile brigades combine a medical and nutritional check-up, monthly food kits, and short-term counseling for children exposed to violence. It runs with partner schools and community centers, which is how we reach children who would never make it to a clinic on their own.
