Once again, we sent nearly 200 kg of clothing, footwear, and medications to Caritas, which manages a clothing bank and a pharmacy, for the Parish of Nuestra Sra. de la Candelaria in Catamarca and the Santa Mónica Nursery in Cafayate. All these donations reach their destinations thanks to the families of Colegio San Agustín in Buenos Aires and are prepared with much love by the Social Action Team.

In addition, from the Service Social Agustiniano, we selected board games and educational toys for Acuarela (the new project for kids that operates at the Parroquia Nuestra Sra. de la Candelaria) to provide more educational materials and support their activities with the children. We then transported the donations from Capital Federal to Cafayate, thanks to the immense generosity of the company La Veloz del Norte, which has been supporting us since 2022.

Children’s Day celebration

On Saturday, September 9th, we welcomed the Missionary Group “Santa Monica Missionary Community” from San Martin de Tours Parish to celebrate Children’s Day with the kids from ASS. It was a beautiful afternoon of games, laughter, and snacks, where we could pamper our little ones and take the opportunity to give out the gifts donated by Paula Montal Sports Center, which they gathered at their Solidarity Kermesse for us.

Thank you to everyone who contributed, allowing the kids to have a great time, play, and have fun!

Don’t wait another second.

“Yesterday, an 11-year-old girl was murdered, and her killer was a 14-year-old teenager…”

Whenever these things happen that deeply hurt my soul and emotionally mobilize society, this question comes to my mind:

“What are we doing, besides protesting and demanding from the government and politicians?”

“We can’t wait any longer for them to take care of it; being horrified and lamenting doesn’t solve the problem either.” “After a few days, we will go back to our routine as if nothing happened, until the next tragedy, which hopefully, we won’t be a part of.”

“There are many of us who work every day to prevent young people from falling into drugs, to instill values in them, and to make them aware that with effort, they can succeed and break free from repeating painful histories. There are many of us, but it’s still not enough…” “We need help…”

“You can do something, we all can do something… you can join as a volunteer at a church or NGO that does this kind of work, or sponsor them.” “If you’re a journalist, you can spread their work, and there are countless ways to offer support, depending on your profession.”

“I’ve been a witness to changes in children for over 17 years, changes that are wonderful…”

“Let’s not resign ourselves to the fact that our society is getting worse and worse.” “Do something to make things different.”

“When we commit ourselves, reality changes.”
