Pediatric Services in Remote Areas of Argentina

Dear Friends, we are happy to share with you the news of the first months of the year with the joint work of Fundación Sumando Manos with other Argentinean Foundations, teachers, directors, people who have collaborated with their work and thanks to the donations received by all our dear donors.

APICULTURE PROJECT IN MISIONES 

The beekeeping project, which consists of installing beehives in communities and schools in certain areas of Misiones Province and providing training to teachers, who teach older students in workshops in their villages, continues to advance. The project, which also consists of building the beehives for each place, the payment for the beekeeping specialist and all the material necessary to carry it out, continues to consolidate with constant work and help.

As part of the project, the development of a plan for self-sufficiency of the hives with the sale of the honey obtained, which also initially requires donations to carry it out, has begun.

SCHOOLS

Classes have started and as every year the initial purchase of school supplies is made for most of the schools we help in the Provinces of Chaco and Misiones area. At the beginning of the school year, we have also provided them with the necessary food to cover breakfasts and lunches.
