These two weeks I have been in charge of the meal: to take it from the hotel, separated and take it to the place. Thus I have also been helping to organize the delivery of food and workshops that was done this Saturday July 25 at "La Aurora" because Ericka (the coordinator) was in The United States.

By this I could noticed that it is not easy to be a coordinator. I have to watch every detail and that the food must reach to all who attend. In these two weeks it is "opened" a new place to still pursuing social work. This new place is in Urdesa but later, at 10:15 aproximately.

This Saturday we went to "La Aurora". We were there at 8:00 and we return to the church at 2:00 p.m. At the begining it that kind of hard to organized the people that attend because there are too many people that really needs our help or they just need somebody to talk.
During our stay we share food, play with children and talked with parents about the materials that children need to attend classes and what they need to improve their school because we want to start a new project to improve schools in "La Aurora" .

We finish the day make some dinamics. I think they really enjoy this day.
When we return to the church we talk about what we have done all day with the people in "La Aurora" and each group have very important things to contribute with.

NOt have Tv

I decided not to have Tv in my bedroom, that's my first input because most of my free time I spend it watching tv or sleeping intead of doing something that will really help me in my development.
I noticed that during all this time I have being a big consumer but now I have learn that we have and to produce something to not waste our time, not even others time and work. Now I write here and everybody can read it. And hopefuly something can learn even a little bit about it.

Pan para mi hermano

Perform social work in "Pan para mi hermano" was a positive and enriching experience for me, in my way of thinking about the real needs of some people that most of the time we believe they are not close to us when it is really the opposite because the porcetage of the low-income people in our country is higher than the one of the people that have basic needs.
One week I help in the organization of the dinner party for all the people that go constantly to receive the food with their families. this was a hard work because we need to find people or organizations that wanted to contribute with food or with money to prepare the food. Some people and organizations refused to provide help and that was, somehow, that made us despair because we needed certain amount of food that no one is left without eating that day.
