With the greatest pleasure we held the graduation of the first group that completed the third stage of Job Training Workshops in occupational line: Cooking: cookies and snacks. There were 19 youths in the Occupational Therapy Group, who obtained their education and training diploma to join the labor market or carry out self-employment activities.
The FUNDUNA was reorganized and the new organzation is now called RIOSMER Foundation. It was registered with the provincial government after completing the bylaws and election of new officers. The local government will be sending more teachers and increase enrolment of the physically and mentally challenged youths to undergo Occupational Therapy.
RIOSMER Foundation means Los Ríos - Las Mercedes. Los Ríos the province where the Basque missionary group has been working for more than half a century; and Las Mercedes because the city is placed in the hands of Our Lady the Virgin of Mercy.
RIOSMER is now recognized by the Edcation District as a school providing Special Education Training to youths with physical and mental disabilities.
