IMPACT

We measure what we do and communicate only what we can support with evidence.

For Fundación Sonrisas Sostenibles, impact means turning community listening into evidence, evidence into management, and management into verifiable results. This page will grow as projects generate new documented results.

DOCUMENTED RESULTS

What we can demonstrate today.

These indicators correspond to activities and management processes supported by evidence within the Foundation's institutional process. They do not include future goals or expected results.

18 households characterized

Families from La Vega and Bijao included in the characterization of flood impacts.

2 documented sectors

La Vega and Bijao, with territorial information used to support institutional management.

1 formal management process derivada

Formal petition filed with the Municipal Government on August 3, 2026.

2 priority educational institutions

I.E. 20 de Julio and Colegio Interamericano within the Corredor Escolar Seguro initiative.

Note: an institution or household described as “prioritized” or “characterized” is not automatically counted as a final beneficiary. Beneficiary indicators will be published when sufficient evidence of the received outcome exists.

FROM DIAGNOSIS TO MANAGEMENT

A concrete result of the community characterization.

The flood characterization did not end with data collection. The evidence made it possible to formally present the identified needs to the municipal administration.

01Characterization

18 households documented in La Vega and Bijao.

02Findings

Identification of impacts and needs associated with flooding conditions.

03Filing

Formal petition submitted to the Municipal Government on August 3, 2026.

04Follow-up

Management to coordinate health brigades and housing-improvement actions for characterized homes.

PHASE RESULT

The community need was converted into evidence and formal institutional management.

Health brigades and housing-improvement actions are objectives of the ongoing management process; they are not yet presented as completed results.

SCOPE UNDER DEVELOPMENT

Impact also means preparing responsible solutions.

Part of our current work consists of formulating, prioritizing and coordinating initiatives. To maintain transparency, we separate already documented results from goals that still belong to the future.

ENVIRONMENT

El Bagre Siembra Futuro

Initial target: 2,500 trees.

The target is communicated as a program projection, not as trees already planted.
RURAL SOLIDARITY

Tejiendo Sonrisas

Planned start in October 2026 with rural communities.

Contributions, activities and participating families will be counted after implementation and documentation.

HOW WE WILL MEASURE

A simple traceability pathway.

Each initiative will build its own evidence so that partners, communities and entities can understand what was done and what changed.

01Baseline

What situation we found.

02Activity

What action we carried out.

03Output

What deliverable or management output it produced.

04Outcome

What verifiable change occurred.

05Evidence

What supporting evidence demonstrates it.

TRANSPARENCY

Impact must be verifiable.

The platform will progressively include reports, supporting records, photographic evidence, formal filings and institutional documents associated with projects.
