La Principita en Sumando Por Ti. (August-October 2025).
Between August and October, at Sumando Por Ti, we experienced a transformative journey with the staging of La Principita, a theatrical project that became a celebration of art, imagination, and the inner strength of the girls. Through the creative process, adapting the classic story The Little Prince, each of the children found new ways to express themselves, share, and strengthen their self-esteem. Theater reminded us that art can be a powerful bridge between emotion and learning.
During these months, the Arte Pro team accompanied each stage of the process, from adapting the work with the help of workshop facilitator Daniela Rodríguez, to rehearsals and the final performance. The project fostered collective creativity, encouraged teamwork, and allowed all the girls to develop fundamental socio-emotional skills such as empathy, active listening, and resilience. The performance was not only an artistic achievement but also a demonstration of the impact that art can have on children.
Additionally, Arte Pro continued weekly workshops with each of the shelters that we work with. In total, 164 girls and boys benefited directly:
They all participated in workshops that strengthened their sense of belonging and their ability to communicate confidently. The community, including caregivers, also benefited from witnessing the participants' progress and enthusiasm, fostering a more united and hopeful environment. The most outstanding achievement of this year was undoubtedly the play, which marked a turning point in the project's development. Its success reaffirmed the importance of art as a driver of social and emotional change.
In the coming months, Arte Pro will continue along this path with year-end evaluations, which will allow us to measure the impact achieved and plan new strategies to continue strengthening the integral growth of each girl and boy through art.
