We’re thrilled to share some heartwarming updates from our work in rural Santiago del Estero, all made possible thanks to your incredible support!
In August, from the 11th to the 17th, a group of dedicated healthcare professionals—pediatricians, biochemists, social workers, nutritionists, and dentists—came together as volunteers to bring primary healthcare to five rural communities. Over those days, we provided essential medical attention to 146 children and 80 families, ensuring they received the care they so deeply needed. The impact was tangible, with families expressing deep gratitude for the care and guidance our team offered.
As if that wasn’t enough, in September, we kicked off our ICT workshops in three new rural schools in the Quebrachos and Ojo de Agua departments. Every week, our fantastic instructor Franco, alongside Sandra, delivers these exciting workshops to 58 curious children and 6 enthusiastic teachers. The joy of seeing these kids interact with technology, many for the first time, is truly priceless.
But the magic didn’t stop there! On August 17th, we celebrated Argentina’s Día de la Niñez in a special way by delivering toy donations to the children in these rural schools. The smiles and laughter of the students filled our hearts, reminding us all why we do what we do—because every child deserves moments of joy and hope.
None of these milestones would have been possible without you. Your generosity is not just bringing supplies and education to these communities—it's bringing hope, health, and the promise of a better tomorrow.
Thank you for standing with us, and for being a vital part of this transformative journey. Together, we’re making a real difference in these children’s lives, one step at a time.
