Mission
To develop comprehensive training projects for early childhood and educators, using various art forms and sports disciplines to enhance human development. We work directly with diverse communities and promote cultural spaces that strengthen identity and social development.

We have a profound commitment to artistic development as we believe it connects us to our deepest humanity. Our national and international supporters share our conviction that cultures – being so numerous and diverse – should not remain isolated, but rather open to vibrant processes of social exchange.



33 YEARS OF HISTORY

The International Funtanik Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to cultural exchange through artistic expression. Founded in 1992 in Cali by art and culture enthusiasts seeking intercultural connections, we bridge national and international perspectives while honoring diverse cultural identities worldwide.

The Foundation develops educational, cultural and social programs that assist and promote the rights of constitutionally protected populations, including minorities, vulnerable groups, conflict victims, demobilized populations, those in extreme poverty, and rural communities.

We currently implement peacebuilding and social welfare initiatives through arts and culture as bridges to a more humane world where diversity unites and enriches social fabric.
