Cecilia es vegana y defensora de los derechos de los animales desde hace m\u00e1s de seis a\u00f1os. Su perspectiva de la vida se transform\u00f3 tras la muerte de su perra, Ladyhawk, en 2016. Fue una verdadera compa\u00f1era que ense\u00f1\u00f3 a Cecilia a ver el mundo a trav\u00e9s de su coraz\u00f3n y no solo de sus ojos. Esta experiencia ayud\u00f3 a Cecilia a descubrir qui\u00e9n es realmente y cu\u00e1l es su prop\u00f3sito en la vida. Es optimista y cree que se puede crear un mundo m\u00e1s compasivo para todos los animales, ya que todos somos esencialmente los mismos seres, solo que con formas diferentes\u00a0<\/p>\n

Aquellos que conocen el prop\u00f3sito de sus vidas no escuchan a la multitud sino a sus corazones\"<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Andres has been concerned about the environment since he was very young and has questioned his relationship with nature. In 2018, while in college, he started an egg production business.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, from 2020 he became aware of the deep cruelty that hens live in this industry, farm animals and all forms of exploitation they suffer. So he decided to go vegan and from that moment on he wanted to be the voice of the voiceless.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

I have always felt a deep connection with animals, their presence brings me peace and comfort, even without words, we seem to understand each other.<\/span><\/p>\n

I enjoy caring for them and earning their trust animals sense my emotions and respond with love. They teach me patience, compassion, and loyalty and being around them helps me feel calm and grounded. Being part of the foundation helps me understand much more about them, I learn from their instincts and gentle nature, my bond with animals is a special part of who I am.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

My journey into animal rescue began ten years ago when I found a dog wandering alone on a country road. As I called out to him, he ran straight toward me and leapt into my car\u2014he somehow knew he was safe.<\/span><\/p>\n

To my heartbreak, I discovered he had multiple BB gun wounds across his body. I was devastated that anyone could harm such an innocent soul. With three pets already at home and the dog needing urgent medical care, I reached out to a local rescue group for help.<\/span><\/p>\n

Their compassion and immediate willingness to step in left a lasting impression on me. I soon began volunteering with them, which led to eventually serving on their Board of Directors. That one moment changed the course of my life, awakening a deep passion I didn\u2019t know existed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Helping animals is one of the most rewarding experiences imaginable. I hope to inspire others to join us in this mission of kindness\u2014whether by feeding a stray, adopting, volunteering, or supporting local rescue efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Please be kind to animals. You’ll be amazed how good it makes your heart feel.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Vivian ha tenido la suerte de experimentar y compartir el amor con su chico Beau. Ella adopt\u00f3 este hermoso doodle dorado hace m\u00e1s de 5 a\u00f1os cuando una familia no era capaz de mantenerse al d\u00eda con las crecientes necesidades de Beau. Beau ha sido su maestro, mostrando su verdadera alegr\u00eda y amor por los animales. La naturaleza dulce y juguetona de Beau la hizo consciente del profundo v\u00ednculo que pueden crear los seres humanos y los animales. Tambi\u00e9n de la intensa conexi\u00f3n, comprensi\u00f3n y respeto entre todas las incre\u00edbles criaturas. Beau ha sido su norte tranquilizador, su alegr\u00eda y su compa\u00f1\u00eda constante.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I\u2019ve worked as a dog walker and caretaker, and I rarely miss an opportunity to greet every dog I see on the street. I\u2019m a passionate advocate for animal welfare and deeply aligned with LAF\u2019s mission, committed to helping as many animals as possible. I believe the world becomes a better place when we treat animals with the love, dignity, and respect they deserve. My dedication has led me to participate in various animal walks and volunteer efforts supporting neutering and adoption campaigns in the United States, Peru, and Colombia.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

Her perspective on life was transformed after her dog. Ladyhawk, passed away in 2016. She was a true companion who taught Cecilia to view the world through her heart and not just her eyes. This experience helped Cecilia discover who she truly is and her purpose in life. She is optimistic that a more compassionate world can be created for all animals, as we are all essentially the same beings, just in different forms.\u00a0<\/p> <p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThose who know the purpose of their lives listen not to the crowd but to their hearts\u201d<\/p>\n<h1>DIRECTOR & CO-FOUNDER<br\/>Andres Giraldo<\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Andres has been concerned about the environment since he was very young and has questioned his relationship with nature. In 2018, while in college, he started an egg production business.<\/p> <p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, from 2020 he became aware of the deep cruelty that hens live in this industry, farm animals and all forms of exploitation they suffer. So he decided to go vegan and from that moment on he wanted to be the voice of the voiceless.<\/p>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Ladyhawk-Director-1332x1536-1.jpeg\" width=\"560\" height=\"1536\" title=\"Our Team\" alt=\"Our Team\">\n<img src=\"http:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Gustavo-Lalinde-LAF-qluc8py4u4o5hfds45h25pj7q41syyr5qor2kaj92w.jpeg\" width=\"560\" height=\"300\" title=\"Our Team\" alt=\"Our Team\">\n<h1>FUNDRAISING DIRECTOR<br\/>Gustavo Lalinde<\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have always felt a deep connection with animals, their presence brings me peace and comfort, even without words, we seem to understand each other.<\/p> <p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I enjoy caring for them and earning their trust animals sense my emotions and respond with love. They teach me patience, compassion, and loyalty and being around them helps me feel calm and grounded. Being part of the foundation helps me understand much more about them, I learn from their instincts and gentle nature, my bond with animals is a special part of who I am.<\/p>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Teri-LAF.jpeg\" width=\"560\" height=\"2048\" title=\"Our Team\" alt=\"Our Team\">\n<h1>COMMUNITY OUTREACH DIRECTOR<br\/>Teri Puentes<\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">My journey into animal rescue began ten years ago when I found a dog wandering alone on a country road. As I called out to him, he ran straight toward me and leapt into my car\u2014he somehow knew he was safe.<\/p> <p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To my heartbreak, I discovered he had multiple BB gun wounds across his body. I was devastated that anyone could harm such an innocent soul. With three pets already at home and the dog needing urgent medical care, I reached out to a local rescue group for help.<\/p> <p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Their compassion and immediate willingness to step in left a lasting impression on me. I soon began volunteering with them, which led to eventually serving on their Board of Directors. That one moment changed the course of my life, awakening a deep passion I didn\u2019t know existed.<\/p> <p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Helping animals is one of the most rewarding experiences imaginable. I hope to inspire others to join us in this mission of kindness\u2014whether by feeding a stray, adopting, volunteering, or supporting local rescue efforts.<\/p> <p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Please be kind to animals. You'll be amazed how good it makes your heart feel.<\/p>\n<h1>TREASURER<br\/>Vivian Borja<\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Vivian has been fortunate to experience and share love with her boy Beau. She adopted this beautiful golden doodle over 5 years ago when a family wasn\u2019t able to keep up with Beau\u2019s growing needs. Beau has been her master, showing her true joy and love for animals. Beau\u2019s gentle yet playful nature made her aware of the deep bond humans and animals can create. Also the intense connection, understanding, and respect amongst all amazing creatures. Beau has been her calming north, her sense of joy, and constant companionship.<\/p>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/About_2-560x544.png\" width=\"560\" height=\"544\" title=\"About_2\" alt=\"About_2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/About_2-560x544.png 560w, https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/About_2-300x292.png 300w, https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/About_2.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/LAF-Sofia-scaled.jpeg\" width=\"560\" height=\"2560\" title=\"Our Team\" alt=\"Our Team\">\n<h1>COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR<br\/>Sofia Lalinde<\/h1>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I\u2019ve worked as a dog walker and caretaker, and I rarely miss an opportunity to greet every dog I see on the street. I\u2019m a passionate advocate for animal welfare and deeply aligned with LAF\u2019s mission, committed to helping as many animals as possible. I believe the world becomes a better place when we treat animals with the love, dignity, and respect they deserve. My dedication has led me to participate in various animal walks and volunteer efforts supporting neutering and adoption campaigns in the United States, Peru, and Colombia.<\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/184","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=184"}],"version-history":[{"count":99,"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/184\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1807,"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/184\/revisions\/1807"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ladyhawkanimalfoundation.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=184"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
