Who we are
Fundación
Corona is a private nonprofit organization that supports and funds
initiatives oriented towards strengthening the institutional capacity of
the country in four strategic social sectors: education, health,
entrepreneurial development and local and community development.
The foundation was established in 1963 by the Echavarría Olózaga family,
highly successful Colombian entrepreneurs who have participated in the
industrial development of the country through the establishment and
operation of Corona, an entrepreneurial organization mainly dedicated to
the manufacture and commercialization of ceramic products.
Fundación Corona represents the social commitment of a family who
understands its work in supporting innovative programs and projects
having an impact in contributing to improve equity and decrease poverty
in Colombia.
