The Actitud Solidaria Foundation, based at Roque Sáenz Peña 2579, is facing considerable challenges in the midst of the food crisis that plagues numerous homeless people.
Although the demand for food remains constant, the organization recorded a notable reduction in the number of donations received, which compromised its task of continuing to offer help to those who need it most.
In this context, Luis Mónaco, representative of Actitud Solidaria, explained to CyD Noticias that the organization cooks from Monday to Friday to satisfy the needs of the people it serves. However, he stressed that “the situation is quite difficult”..
This concern is reflected in the emptying of the shelves, since the foundation does not have the financial means to replace the food that is delivered. For this reason, Monaco called for solidarity. “We ask people to please give us a hand with the food part. A small effort for something that we have been doing for 14 years and we want to continue doing it,” he explained.
The crisis is not something new for Actitud Solidaria but according to its representative “this has already happened before” and that despite the efforts of all the members, the lack of support is evident. “We are working alone,” Monaco said.
In the midst of this discouraging panorama, the NGO strives to maintain the quality of the food rations it offers. This is how new initiatives arise that seek to obtain donations.
On this occasion, the lower categories of Unión women’s soccer will organize a meeting in which attendees will be asked to contribute with non-perishable food for the foundation. This represents an additional initiative to address these needs.
In this way, Monaco invited the community to contribute either by participating in this cause or by organizing activities to obtain this type of donations.
