Building Hope, One Home at a Time: Dialectica Partners with TECHO for Lasting Impact

The spirit of compassion and collective purpose came to life as Dialectica teamed up with TECHO, a leading nonprofit organization in Latin America, to bring real, tangible change to one of Bogotá’s most vulnerable communities.

In alignment with Dialectica’s ESG strategy, thirteen employees volunteered over the weekend in Ciudad Bolívar—working together to build not just a house, but a foundation for a better future for a family in need. This initiative reflects our belief that creating long-term value means actively supporting the communities where we live and work.

A Home with Heart

On Saturday, May 24, and Sunday, May 25, our volunteers dedicated their time and energy to constructing a dignified, prefabricated home for Jairo, Jennifer, and their two beloved dogs, Princesa and Petete. What unfolded over those two days was far more than a construction project—it was a heartfelt expression of empathy, teamwork, and community.

The process was physically demanding but deeply rewarding. It reminded all involved that the strongest foundations are built not only from wood and nails, but from shared commitment and genuine care.

“It was a deeply valuable experience, and it fills me with joy that companies like Dialectica create opportunities like this—ones that allow us to connect with social causes and generate real impact in the communities around us.”
— Juanita Rodríguez, Sr. Associate, Expert Interviews

More Than a Structure: A Shared Purpose

From navigating logistics to hammering beams under the sun, each Dialectican brought their unique energy and spirit. The air buzzed with laughter, music, teamwork, and encouragement—and even the smallest gestures, like comforting the family dogs or smoothing the home’s floor, helped transform the site into something more than just a build: it became a space of connection.

“I couldn’t be prouder of what you achieved together this weekend. Each of you went above and beyond.”
— Gabriela Castro, HR Associate and Corporate Volunteering Coordinator

A New Beginning

By the end of the weekend, Jairo and Jennifer stood at the doorstep of a new chapter—with a home built not only with tools, but with care, resilience, and solidarity. For Dialectica’s volunteers, it was a powerful reminder that meaningful impact begins with showing up, lending a hand, and believing in change.

We are deeply grateful to every Dialectica employee who participated, to TECHO for their inspiring leadership and partnership, and above all, to Jairo, Jennifer, Princesa, and Petete for welcoming us into their lives.
