The Foundation, independently from the financial
assistance that it obtains through the Godfather program, searches for
different ways to assist within the schools and their surrounding areas
so as to boost the impact in each neighboring community.
Thus,
(1) it organizes and finances the vegetable garden programs already in
existence in four of the five schools it supports. Through drives for
the common good, promoted by various enterprises, it obtains donations
in cash and in kind that allows it to actively work within the society;
(2) it implements initiatives as the Teachaers' Support Program; (3)
Regularly supplies non-perishable foods, clothing and meat; (4) provides
transportation for the children to take educational trips, visit the
city and other places (made possible by the donation of a bus by CUTCSA);
(5) delivers toys on special dates; (6) donates computers and finances
the training of professors in computer science; among many other things.
The additional impact caused by these initiatives,
generates a multiplying effect in the assistance, reaching, as a
consequence, a universe of 1,700 children living under the poverty line
as well as their families.
