We donate 5% of our sales to our social project in Paraguay
Where does it take place?
PARAFINA SOCIAL PROJECT takes place in Paraguay, one of the poorest countries in Latin America, with 35.1% of the population living below the poverty line. This situation makes it difficult for a large part of the population to access quality education. Currently, all our efforts are focused on a beloved school in Bañado Sur, a neighborhood in Asunción, the capital of the country.
We have a purpose: to create a positive impact on the school and its surroundings.
The José Mª Bojarin La Salle School has been in the neighborhood for over 50 years and currently has 600 students, from kindergarten to ninth grade. With our project, we aim not only to facilitate access to school education but also to provide children with a safe space where they can play, study, and socialize.
Currently, we fund a school scholarship program and a tutoring support program. Depending on the school's needs, we also finance the purchase of school supplies, furniture, or other necessities that arise.
More than 10 years funding the School Scholarship Project.
We offer school scholarships to children from low-income families. On average, we sponsor about 175 children per year. Our scholarships cover both school fees and books.
Thanks to their enrollment in school, the children can also access all the services the school offers, such as the cafeteria, medical services, support, etc., as well as a great place to grow and interact with other children.
A great School Support team
For the past 5 years, PARAFINA has been funding an important School Support project.
The project team is made up of a psychologist, an educational psychologist, and a support teacher. Their role is to assist both children with difficulties and families who request help. Another important function is supporting teachers in working with students who face greater challenges.
