RJI partners again with S.O.S for 2011

Reto Juvenil Internacional  partners again with S.O.S (Students Offering Support) for 2011.

SOS has been one of our partners for over 2 years and we are looking forwards to strength this alliance for the good of rural communities.

S.O.S is the student-led charitable association that supports and develops University SOS chapters. Within each SOS chapter, student volunteers work together to raise marks which raises money to ultimately raise roofs for children in Latin America, in countries such as Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama and Guatemala. 

Within this two years, together we have reached numerous communities and helped them with a diverse number of needs they had:

 

Costa Rica:

-Poasito: Construction of antiseismic  foundations for the community hall  destroyed by an Earthquake

-Namaldi: Construction of Primary School, Teacher´s house, Vegetable garden, High school Improvements, Dining hall

-Cerro Azul: Primary school Improvements

 

Guatemala:

-Nueva Florida: construction of  the primary school and vegetable garden

 

Nicaragua:

-Ocalca: construction of 2 classrooms for the primary school and vegetable garden

-Pueblo Viejo: construction of  the teacher´s house for the primary school, School  Dining room and vegetable garden

 

Panama:

-Silico Creek: Construction of dining room for primary school and vegetable garden

 

For this 2011, this alliance will help many other communities and with it, the opportunity for a better life will reach many more people
