What is Barefoot?


The Barefoot Foundation is a U.S. non-profit, non-governmental organization created by internationally acclaimed recording artist and humanitarian Shakira. The organization is devoted to ensuring that every child can exercise his or her basic right to a quality education. We aim to improve the education and quality of life for the millions of boys and girls denied the chance to fulfill their potential.

Why they are Awesome

  • Currently, the Barefoot Foundation supports six schools run by Pies Descalzos Foundation, in the diverse Colombian regions of Barranquilla, Altos de Cazucá and Quibdó

  • For your $30 monthly gift, your child will receive an education, uniforms, books, nutritious food, recreational activities and homework support while also letting him or her know that they matter.
