Concern America

💚 Community is at the heart of everything we do. 🌎

Concern field volunteer Alicia, based in Chiapas, Mexico, also supports our program in Colombia. During Alicia’s recent organizing visit to Colombia, together with Concern’s Field Program Director, Cat, she reflected on the beauty of reconnecting with teams, communities, and the relationships that continue to strengthen Concern’s work across borders.

“It is a privilege to do this work and to help the network continue to grow stronger… In this way, the network continues to grow—and through it, we become one team, a vast team across different parts of the world, with different languages and cultures. But we know we are not alone—we know that Concern America is all of us.” ✨

Through shared experiences, long conversations, learning, and accompaniment, communities continue building connections rooted in care, dignity, and hope. 🤝🌿

🌎🌿 Happy World Environment Day from Concern America! 💚

From the field to our home office, we are grateful for the Earth we share and the communities working every day to care for it. Whether it’s tending a garden 🌱, walking through nature 🚶‍♀️, planting seeds 🌼, or simply taking a moment to appreciate the beauty around us, every act of care matters.

Today, we celebrate our planet and the responsibility we all share to protect and nurture the environment for future generations. 🌍✨
