Asociación Civil
This Monday, we all said goodbye together to the four graduates of this year: Orne, Guada, Lean, and Angel.
We are very happy to have accompanied them throughout these years in our spaces!
Thank you for sharing your learnings with us and giving us so many wonderful moments. You will always have open doors and be a part of our Agustinian Social Service!
In the upcoming posts, we’ll tell you a little more about them.
We present to you our institutional video so you can see how we transmit values and help the families participating in SSA. In the video, you’ll also hear Sharon’s testimony, who participated in our programs 13 years ago, and see how her life has improved.
Let us show you this beautiful activity we did with the children:
Yoga Duo
Where we work on trust in relationships, concentration, caring for our peers and teamwork.
Whenever we take part in these activities we get moving, we connect with our own breathing, taking care of our body and that of our companions.
On August 26th, Paula Montal Sports Center, which has been supporting us for over 12 years by providing their soccer field, also organized a Solidarity Kermesse and gathered a huge amount of games and toys. We took advantage of this wonderful initiative to pamper our kids and give them gifts during our celebration for Children’s Day. We also sent a lot of materials to the new project “Acuarela,” which operates at Our Lady of Candelaria Parish in Santa María, Catamarca.
We are happy to have Paula Montal Sports Center supporting us for so long. Thanks to them, the kids from Agustinian Social Service can enjoy the Soccer Project once a week. Besides burning off a lot of energy, they learn teamwork, problem-solving through communication, taking care of their bodies, and so much more.
From Monday to Friday, we receive almost 90 children in Balvanera so they can have a snack, play, read, do their homework, and play soccer. Thus, a team of young professionals and a large group of volunteers help children incorporate human and Augustinian values through play. The main message we aim to convey is that beyond the challenging environment in which the children participating in our organization were born, they are not defined by it. They have the opportunity to forge a different future through effort, perseverance, and the discovery of their talents.
We also want to tell you that Sharon, at 26 years old, returned to ASS after 13 years of participating in our organization. She is now a woman working at Farmacity, studying a Technical Degree in Safety and Hygiene, and has enrolled her 4-year-old daughter in the Social Service so she can also have wonderful experiences in our organization. We are happy to continue making a positive impact on her and her daughter.
Today we want to show you our activity called PEQUECHEF!
We put together our own snacks as a group, following a recipe and putting lots of love into it.
Together, we cook, work as a team, and create beautiful decorations with enthusiasm and joy. Each team received special recognition for their effort.
After tidying up and cleaning our hands, we enjoy our delicious snack!
