Our beneficiaries enjoyed an exciting movie day this week, where they relaxed and watched a fun and enriching film. The activity included a delicious snack, creating an even more pleasant atmosphere. Participants shared laughs and comments about their favorite scenes, strengthening community bonds and friendships. These recreational activities are key to promoting emotional well-being and a sense of belonging among our beneficiaries, creating unforgettable memories together.
From the psychosocial support program, activities promoting the mental health of our boys and girls are conducted. This time, we had the support of Academia Sandra to organize a spa session that included body massages, relaxing music, and aromatherapy, aiming to generate a state of well-being and emotional self-regulation.
Every Saturday, upon arrival, our children from the Travelers group engage in an exciting and fun activity to recognize their emotions. Guided by our facilitators, they explore how they feel and learn to identify and manage their emotions positively. This practice not only strengthens their emotional intelligence but also creates a conducive environment for learning and harmonious interaction among the participants.
Our beneficiaries from the “Alegría” group participated in an exciting activity of empathy and collaborative work. During the activity, the children learned through mutual support, creating creative bags made by themselves. This experience not only fostered creativity but also teamwork and solidarity among the participants. It was a day full of learning and fun!
From the educational articulation program, periodic visits are made to educational institutions to verify the attendance of all beneficiaries, contributing to the reduction of school dropout rates. This week, we visited six institutions in the municipality of Soledad, including Jorge Artel and Our Lady of Guadalupe.
This week at the Soledad headquarters, we wanted to highlight the work of the mothers in the social volunteering program with a facial cleansing session, a space for recreation, relaxation, and self-esteem to remind them how important and valuable they are to us. For this activity, we had the support of the Academia Sandra Foundation.
This week, at the Lipaya site, we visited the schools of our beneficiaries to verify their attendance and identify potential risk factors that could lead to school dropout. These activities allow us to intervene preventively, offering timely support and solutions to ensure that students can continue their education. During the visits, we met with teachers and administrators to discuss the academic performance and well-being of the beneficiaries.
This week in our nutritional workshop for parents, we learned preservation methods for fruits. This is a food security strategy to reduce food waste and simultaneously take advantage of fresh produce during harvest season by purchasing enough to store. Additionally, parents were able to enjoy a delicious and healthy dessert made with preserved fruits.
This Wednesday, on World Environment Day, the group “Guardianes Ambientales” carried out a successful beach cleaning day in Barranquilla. These young leaders participated enthusiastically, collecting waste to conserve the environment and promote ecological responsibility. Equipped with gloves and bags, they managed to remove a significant amount of trash, including plastics and glass, thereby contributing to the protection of marine life and the coastal ecosystem.
This weekend, the Foundation organized a successful comprehensive health day aimed at children and their families. During the event, medical and dental evaluations, as well as vaccinations, were carried out, providing specialized care and personalized advice to enhance the health and well-being of attendees. Participants also enjoyed a supportive and welcoming environment, reinforcing the importance of health care within the community. The Foundation remains committed to promoting the overall well-being of beneficiary families.
