Who we are

Who we are

We define ouselves as community builders. A community builder is someone who, instead of offering provisional help, gets to know a community and its people, its weaknesses and strengths. In this way, we build a strong relationship with each community. A relationship that lasts a life time.

MURGAS⠀ In the 20th century, the influence of Italian and Spanish immigrants gave a new meaning to the carnival, introducing rhythms, dances, and costumes from their native places, which were mixed with the customs of each Argentine province. Thus, little by little, the passage from the "comparsas de candombe" to the "murgas" took place, which began to dance and play in the "corsos". After 1976, during the civil-military dictatorship, the carnival was eliminated from the official calendar of celebrations and its street manifestations were stopped, which caused its invisibility in the public sphere. ⠀ After 1983, despite the fact that only a dozen murgas had survived, the carnival phenomenon continued with great force in the neighborhoods and regained public space until 2010, when the national holidays of Monday and Tuesday of the carnival were officially reinstated. ⠀ The murgas have a strong social content for the neighborhoods of Buenos Aires and each one of them is characterized by the stamp of the neighborhood it represents. Although each one is different, they share the history and several points in common: through this style, they develop different artistic disciplines, encourage creativity, dance, music, and instrumentation uniting several generations by the passion and love for keeping the carnival alive.⠀ Although this year's carnival celebrations cannot take place due to the pandemic, we believe it is important to highlight the place that murgas have in our society.⠀ ⠀ 📸 from https://bit.ly/3pnGygh

You can volunteer from home! ⠀ This online project arose as a result of the pandemic and the growth of the virtual modality. The English institutes had to modify their dynamics of operation and the incorporation of volunteers was very important to keep students motivated and create more interactive classes. In addition, the work of the volunteers helps the teachers with the extra load that virtuality implies. The virtuality allows the volunteers to not only participate from their home countries but also to participate in two English institutes at the same time, which could not be done in person. One of the institutes is located in Pablo Nogues, north of Greater Buenos Aires, and the other in Ciudadela, west of Greater Buenos Aires.⠀ ⠀ Why is this project important for the community?⠀ English teaching projects are very important for the community. Both projects work primarily with working-class families and learning English opens up new opportunities for growth. In addition, for the students, they function as places of containment and accompaniment where they interact with other children, teachers, and international volunteers. These projects not only teach English but also help students develop new skills and provide them with new tools.⠀ ⠀ You can find out more on our website (link in BIO)
