About Los Quinchos

  • Background

    • Los Quinchos is an NGO that began 18 years ago. The person who started Los Quinchos is Doña Zelinda, an Italian women from Sardeña Iland. She begun this project interacting with kids that she saw in El Oriental (a famous market place). The majority of kids she found had left their home due to physical abuse like tortures (tying them to the bed, hitting them with objects, not feeding them, etc.), physical and sexual abuse, alcoholic or drug addicted parents, irresponsible parents (sending them to the streets to work or sell drugs).
