Playful activity on the occasion of Mother's Day.

Según sus estatutos, la Fundación Xiomara Ureña está diseñada para impactar a un grupo amplio y diverso de poblaciones con necesidades específicas. Sin embargo, este proyecto específico, que ha sido creado con el apoyo de la Fundación Funcomas, tiene el propósito de elevar la calidad de vida de las personas mayores en condiciones de vulnerabilidad.
Especialmente en estos tiempos, debido a la pandemia de COVID-19, los ancianos están cada vez más expuestos al contagio y, al mismo tiempo, cada vez más alejados del contacto físico con los demás. Incluso con sus familiares.


Ante el aumento de las necesidades de cuidados en esta población, nos hemos centrado en actividades, no solo de donación solidaria, sino también de sensibilización, educación y apoyo a la sociedad para evitar la exclusión social y brindar a las personas mayores un contexto enriquecido que mejore su calidad de vida. .

Es difícil resumir todo lo que hacemos en unos tres meses para mejorar la vida de muchas personas mayores en Santo Domingo, pero aquí resumimos nuestras últimas actividades.


Te animamos a que los leas y veas las imágenes. Son una prueba de que se pueden hacer muchas cosas para proteger a las personas mayores, especialmente a las que están en riesgo de Exclusión Social, aunque de momento estamos gestionando un presupuesto bajo.

 

1. Programas de desarrollo


1.1. Área social


Siempre orientado a la persona; A veces, hay que buscar medidas de protección, pero, previamente, realizamos un trabajo, con mucha delicadeza y paciencia para lograr, primero, la aceptación de nuestras propias limitaciones, la confianza en las personas a través del respeto y la dignidad; El buen trato y las buenas prácticas, además de la profesionalidad y el cariño, hacen que la persona valore y acepte la medida propuesta, con la alegría de ser digna y bien cuidada.
En este trimestre nos hemos dado cuenta de que, en nuestra sociedad, las personas mayores son discriminadas para llevar a cabo su proyecto de vida, por el simple hecho de haber perdido algunas de sus capacidades debido a la edad. Nuestro compromiso, ha sido, poner todos los medios para que disfruten al máximo de su vida y puedan realizar aquellas actividades, extraordinarias o cotidianas que estén de acuerdo con su forma de pensar.


1.2. Área legal


It aims to respect the exercise of the right of every human person, without discrimination based on age or disability. We process precise voluntary jurisdiction files for this and intervene in contentious processes, claims and others, in defense of the interests and rights of the beneficiary.


1.3. Awareness program

During this time, as in the previous stages, and because it is a very important part of the mission, we have carried out training and awareness activities, introducing as a novelty in February, a specific activity for young people.
Activity in which there was an interesting meeting of adolescents with an older person. It was an exchange in which all parties were enriched.


In April we started, and for the remainder of the year, we intend to highlight our Social and Health Prevention Day that took place on the international day of elder abuse and abuse. We have the support of prominent professionals who will act as speakers, and a group of volunteers, people interested in preventing abuse and promoting good treatment.


Once again we raised our voices for the rights of the elderly, we debated and at the same time we had an excellent opportunity to learn.


1.4. Solidarity Donation


Of course, together with prevention and social education activities, we develop a series of donations. Delivery of food baskets. Medicines, prevention packages against COVID19 and useful objects that seek to alleviate the situation of deprivation and vulnerability of the elderly in our country.

Confiamos en que este proyecto pueda ayudar a mejorar la vida de muchas personas mayores.


Agradecemos infinitamente el apoyo recibido de cada persona que ha tomado conciencia de esta causa y les animamos a seguir apoyando esta visión. Que seguiremos creando estrategias para impactar positivamente a esta población.


Gracias.
