Education is known as the key to break poverty traps. "Tony" started as a beneficiary many years ago (around 8), and he has been a testimony of challenges and opportunities. As he said: "My experience as a volunteer has been the best because one is learning every day more about the way of being of children, adolescents and adults. Before the pandemic, I loved it, because at the beginning I helped children to learn how to swim. I was excited because I watched how they were learning in the process ... and I had to go to school, even if it was difficult, but I was doing well. When the pandemic started, I didn't know how we were going to do it, because my parents had lost their jobs, but Lifting Hands helped me despite everything. On food boxes delivery days I like to help to get out of the routine." Thanks "Tony"! We also love having you as a volunteer to help your own community.
