We want to help 120 children (from 6 to 12 years old) to build their present with enthusiasm and strength, in a stable, healthy and overcoming environment.
School coverage in the area of action is lower than the national average. There are a large number of children who do not attend school, or only attend in one shift. There are also no free or inexpensive spaces for sports practice or for educational spaces that promote social integration. Many children and adolescents have the public space as their natural meeting place, without the support of an institution to back them up. Added to this are risk contexts: addictions, violence, insecurity.
Each child who participates in this program receives a medical or psychological consultation, access to a school support workshop, and access to sports classes. They learn the importance of taking care of their own body, incorporating healthy and positive habits, increasing self-esteem and social integration. we believe that educational and sporting spaces are designed to deal with addiction problems in a preventive way.
They receive the tools for being capable of assuming responsibilities and facing the great challenges of daily life, even in a difficult environment. A constant mentoring of each girl and boy is proposed, attentive to their difficulties and potentialities during this annual journey. Personalized accompaniment is a key aspect to achieve inclusion https://padremario.org/padrinazgo-5-trayectorias-y-realidades/
