Project: In this third year running the village of Villa Ana will host a project developed by the group of Young People “Quebrachito” together with Subir al Sur. The volunteers will undertake a community task in the municipal School Manuel Belgrano Nº 686; or more known by the village as the ´´escuelita´´ of the Southern neighbourhood. The construction of a green area will be undertaken along with recreational games and the reconstruction of a cement playground which is an area of great use to the institution, used for shows, parties, official acts and physical recreation of the students. At the end of the project and for the departure of the volunteers a party will be organized between all the participants with music groups and dancing at the end.
The town was founded in 1910 and as many neighbouring towns its foundation was due to the arrival of a British factory called the “The Forestal Land Company” dedicated to the exploitation of the Quebracho Colorado (a native tree) and its production to obtain Tannin, a substance used to work leather.
Free time activities: A historical outing about the village, BBQ in the countryside where the volunteers can ride a horse and go about the countryside, visits to a Pre-school and other Primary and Secondary schools in the town and a visit to the Coop. El Quebracho Colorado dedicated to sustainable production.
The volunteers should be predisposed to share, and to knit together through solidarity and brotherhood the net of dreams and to generate the appropriate place to get to know each other and to learn together.
We hope that each volunteer can bring characteristic elements from their countries to share with the community.
Situation: Villa Ana, in the North of the Province of Santa Fe, Argentina.
Participation fee: 150 Euros
