Savanna Gives Back
Savanna is committed to giving back by partnering with philanthropic organizations such as Hogar de Amor Orphanage in Colima Mexico with monthly support.
The Home of Love and Protection for the Child began operations in January 1992.
The home began with 10 children in the home called “Casa Matriz” or “Main Home” and from there quickly grew to the point that it now serves 160 children in 12 houses, three of them located outside the State of Colima – one in the State of Puebla, and a home in both La Esperanza and Cd. Guzman, Jalisco.
The growth of the Home of Love and Protection for the Child has been in answer to the great need. Our homes are purposed for diverse needs in terms of age, gender and sibling groups. The majority of our buildings are owned by the organization with some purchased as is and others built with the help of teams and individuals. Having our own buildings ensures permanence and continuity of services.
The financial resources for the construction, maintenance and operation of the different houses are supplied mainly through contributions from individuals, foundations, churches and businesses. Our operation and administration involves an average of 60 salaried staff and a large group of permanent and short term volunteers. These people are motivated by their love for the children and are the pillars of our success.
“Happiness doesn’t result from what we get, but from what we give.”
