Last winter holidays we had our 2nd Graduates Network meeting where we welcomed future graduates of class 2015. More than forty students participated in this activity. In the morning, we introduced ourselves and talked about different topics concerning their future plans, such as job hunting and university applications.
Later that day, we visited Cimientos' office, met some of the NGO staff and had lunch together. We raffled prizes.
In the afternoon, students could participate in a workshop of their choice among different options: Working skills, Entrepreneurship and vocational guidance.
It was a very motivating and productive working day. The youths were excited to participate and meet others from different schools and neighborhoods. During winter holidays, we also visited LAN airline office where youths met employees, listened to their professional experiences and asked them questions about corporate work life. We walked through different areas in the offices and airport base at Jorge Newbery Airport.
To end this report, we have some news! The final YouthSpark Bonus Day is coming up on October 7! Microsoft will MATCH DONATIONS received between 12.00 pm and 23.59 pm EDT!, so there you have an excellent chance to donate!
Thank you very much!
