As a new year is coming to an end, girls had the opportunity of traveling to Buenos Aires- the country capital, where they shared a day with a friend organization- Defensores del Chaco, and visited some touristic attractions.
To make that trip a reality, they fundraised some money by selling empanadas- typical Argentinian dish- and got help from their families during the cooking day.
Once back in Rosario, they had a year end activity shared with friends and families in the local park, filled with games and lots of fun. No doubts it will be a year to remember for every participant of the 2019 team.
Before all of this, during september, El Desafío had the 6th Happy Cities Festival, where we discuss how cities help develop youth and for the first time we had a “Sports for development Academy”- a week long intensive training for sports coaches from the country to share our knowledge on how to use sports for develpment.
It was definitely a year filled with new experiences, lots of knowledge and we are looking forward for an even better 2020.
As always, thanks for your support, and please continue to follow us through our social media accounts - Facebook - Twitter & Instagram
