Support rural education in Argentina

As we begin 2026, we’re excited to share how our Women Empowerment project in Villa Ojo de Agua is preparing for another year of creativity, learning, and opportunity. The months of January and February were dedicated to planning, reflecting on what we achieved together and designing the activities that will guide us through the year ahead.

Very soon, we will once again open the doors of our workshops for rural women entrepreneurs, continuing to offer spaces where they can develop skills, share experiences, and grow both personally and economically. These gatherings have become much more than training sessions—they are moments of connection, encouragement, and collective inspiration.

This year, we have set two exciting goals. First, we want to expand the range of products created by the women, especially those that come from the rich natural environment of the local forests. Among the products we hope to promote are wild honey, chañar syrup, carob flour, and other traditional foods and crafts that represent the culture and knowledge of rural communities.

Our second big goal is to create an online marketplace where individuals and companies will be able to purchase these products. Through this platform, every purchase will directly support the women entrepreneurs behind the products, allowing them to reach new customers while sharing their traditions and skills with a wider audience.

Your support continues to be essential for making these ideas possible. Every new workshop, every product created, and every opportunity for these women to grow starts with people like you who believe in their potential.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we are helping rural women turn their talents into opportunities and their dreams into sustainable futures.

With gratitude,

As we wrapped up 2025, something truly special happened in our rural schools in Santiago del Estero: a group of volunteers traveled all the way from the United States to be here, with our students, in our classrooms, on the ground.

Their visit was filled with moments that none of us will ever forget. Together, we delivered new water filters to the schools, ensuring access to safe drinking water. We carried out infrastructure improvements, making one of the schools safer and more welcoming. And perhaps most importantly, we led interactive workshops and leadership activities with the students, focused on helping them see themselves as agents of change in their own communities.

For the volunteers, it was a journey of deep connection, witnessing the power of education, resilience, and joy in places far from home. And for the children, it was the kind of experience that leaves a mark: being seen, celebrated, and encouraged by people from across the world who believe in their potential.

This is the heart of our project. Education that goes beyond textbooks. Connections that go beyond borders.

At Fundación San Genaro, we believe that everyone, no matter where they live, should have the chance to be part of something meaningful. Whether you live in a rural town or a big city halfway across the globe, you can visit, learn, share, and grow alongside these incredible communities.

Thank you for making this possible. Your support creates moments of transformation, for the kids, for the volunteers, and for all of us working toward a more connected and compassionate world.

We can’t wait to welcome more friends in 2026. Who knows? Maybe you’ll be the next to come visit.
