Christians for the World
A community of Disciples in Asia going beyond the frontiers, going to the peripheries, in a mission of love and service to the youth, poor, couples & families and integral ecology.
This symbol of our DNA is at the heart of all activities of Fondacio: 3 dynamics of life. The DNA refers to the unchangeable characteristics of Fondacio that are present since its very beginning and that describes it perfectly. Therefore, the elements of this DNA form the fundamental and inseparable components that inspire the whole offer and actions of Fondacio. In summary, it is a reminder that it is not Fondacio that is at the center but Jesus and His friendship.
