BOGOTA: OPPORTUNITIES FOR 120 CHILDREN & YOUNGTERS

BOGOTÁ: OPPORTUNITIES FOR 120 CHILDREN & YOUNGTERS

By   Moisés Pedraza – director Fundación ZUÁ

Last year, the Zuá Foundation celebrated 25 years since it was created, which means a contribution to the country in terms of service to those most in need.

To commemorate it, an artistic event was held as a synthesis of the work of these 25 years. It was an artistic event at the beginning of December, in which the children presented some of the activities we do with them and demonstrated the extraordinary way in which they improve their lives.

First of all, we saw 87 children on stage, playing musical instruments, singing, doing theater, and dancing. These children shined and with them the coordinators and the 3 arts teachers. It fills the soul to see this big group of girls and boys, their concentration, discipline, and talent, appropriate to their roles on stage and happy to perform and shows us that it is worth working with this population and that they are ready to take advantage of the opportunities.

Some testimonies were presented from mothers, whose lives have been touched by the Foundation. They shared their feelings and their happiness from the support they have felt from the Zuá Foundation.

We also heard the testimony of 1 university graduate and 3 tutors who are currently pursuing their degrees at the university, with the support of the Foundation. They spoke on behalf of the 30 young people who have already graduated from the university and of the 16 young people from the Higher Education Program, who are currently pursuing their degree, emphasizing how this step through the Zuá Foundation has offered them something that had never been possible without its support.

The focus of the celebration was the donors, they are friends who have been providing the resources with which it has been possible to touch so many lives and ensure that so many girls, boys, and young people have dreamed, and, above all, have made their dreams come true. 

Many thanks to those who support the girls, boys, and young people of the Zua Foundation.  Your small or large support is very important to carry out the programs, which require many resources even though we operate based on volunteers. This means that all the resources we receive are invested in the development of programmed activities for the beneficiary population and not in the payment of Foundation salaries.

This extraordinary work in the transformation of lives that has been made by the Foundation, has been done thanks to all the donors. It is because we consider them as part of this great team. After all, without their help, none of this would be a reality.

El año pasado, la Fundación Zuá celebró 25 años de su creación, lo que significa un aporte al país en términos de servicio a los más necesitados.

Para conmemorarlo se realizó un evento artístico como síntesis del trabajo de estos 25 años. Fue un evento artístico a principios de diciembre, en el que los niños presentaron algunas de las actividades que realizamos con ellos y demostraron la extraordinaria manera en que mejoran sus vidas.

En primer lugar, vimos a 87 niños en el escenario, tocando instrumentos musicales, cantando, haciendo teatro y bailando. Estos niños brillaron y con ellos los coordinadores y los 3 profesores de artes. Nos llena el alma ver a este gran grupo de niñas y niños, su concentración, disciplina y talento, adecuados a sus roles en el escenario y felices de actuar y nos muestra que vale la pena trabajar con esta población y que están listos para asumir. aprovechar las oportunidades.

Se presentaron algunos testimonios de madres cuyas vidas han sido tocadas por la Fundación. Compartieron sus sentimientos y su alegría por el apoyo que han sentido por parte de la Fundación Zuá.

También escuchamos el testimonio de 1 egresado universitario y 3 tutores que actualmente cursan sus carreras en la universidad, con el apoyo de la Fundación. Hablaron en nombre de los 30 jóvenes que ya egresaron de la universidad y de los 16 jóvenes del Programa de Educación Superior, que actualmente cursan su carrera, enfatizando cómo este paso a través de la Fundación Zuá les ha ofrecido algo que nunca habían sido posible sin su apoyo.

 El foco de la celebración fueron los donantes, son amigos que han estado brindando los recursos con los que ha sido posible tocar tantas vidas y lograr que tantas niñas, niños y jóvenes hayan soñado y, sobre todo, haya hicieron realidad sus sueños.

Muchas gracias a quienes apoyan a las niñas, niños y jóvenes de la Fundación Zua. Tu pequeño o gran apoyo es muy importante para llevar a cabo los programas, los cuales requieren muchos recursos a pesar de que operamos en base a voluntarios. Esto significa que todos los recursos que recibimos se invierten en el desarrollo de actividades programadas para la población beneficiaria y no en el pago de salarios de la Fundación.

Este extraordinario trabajo en la transformación de vidas que ha realizado la Fundación se ha realizado gracias a todos los donantes. Es porque los consideramos parte de este gran equipo. Después de todo, sin su ayuda nada de esto sería una realidad.
