About the company
Centro Colombo Americano De Medellin is an international, non-profit organization registered as a minority-owned business that has established itself as a significant recipient of federal grant awards from the U.S. Department of State. Based in Medellin, Colombia, the organization serves as a cultural and educational bridge between the United States and Colombia, facilitating academic and cultural exchanges that advance U.S. foreign policy objectives in the Western Hemisphere. The organization maintains active registration with SAM.gov, though its current registration status expired in April 2023, and it has consistently demonstrated capacity to manage multiple concurrent federal grant projects.
Centro Colombo Americano De Medellin has received twelve prime federal grant awards totaling significant federal investment, all administered as Project Grants by two primary funding agencies: the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and the Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs. The organization's grant-funded services encompass a diverse portfolio of educational and cultural initiatives, including the administration of the Martin Luther King Jr. Scholarship Program (funded at $600,000 from September 2021 through December 2023), implementation of the College Horizons Outreach Program designed to provide English instruction and mentoring to high-achieving Afro-descendant and indigenous students in both Medellin and Quibdo, and operation of EducationUSA programming to promote American higher education opportunities. Additionally, the organization has managed American Spaces grant activities, produced cultural content including videos of American artists, organized Women's History Month commemorations, and developed jazz interpretation and improvisation programming for young students. These initiatives collectively demonstrate the organization's expertise in delivering educational exchange programs, English language instruction, scholarship administration, and cultural diplomacy activities across multiple Colombian regions, with all awards operating under the Public Diplomacy Programs framework to strengthen U.S.-Colombian bilateral relationships.
