Project "Children of the Valley"published:09-02-2022As a grandmother, mother and aunt, I like all my children, nieces and nephews. Children are the future and we are here to protect them and help them where we can. For this reason, I commissioned my management team to create the "Children of the Valley" project. As far as I'm concerned, an annual children's party on National Children's Day where as many children from the Paúl valley can enjoy, play and dance. Many of our sisters and brothers from Paul's valley have a life far from easy. Many work in agriculture, women carry heavy materials on their heads with all the consequences it has for their backs. Many live far away or high in the mountains, which makes accessibility very poor. During all the challenges of a family's daily life, especially the children of the valley are "forgotten". This is especially true for children with disabilities. To forget as much as possible these concerns, at least once a year, Georgette organizes a day of leisure and fun for children of the valley during National Children's Day. This is carried out in cooperation with the local municipality in the beautiful park, "Estância Turística de Passagem" of the Valley. It's worth a look, it's a beautiful park. In this way, we hope to contribute to the local social development of the residents of the Valley.
