LOVEPEACEUCRANIA

Aguja Solidaria was born with the biggest health crisis of the 21st century and, with the biggest humanitarian crisis of our continent, we cannot look the other way, so we are with the Ukrainian population at this time.

SOS UCRANIA

Help for Ukraine

In collaboration with international entities that will coordinate the delivery and logistics, we will raise funds for the purchase of: non-perishable food, personal hygiene, medicines, surgical material, clothes and basic necessities. Everything that is in our hands and is indicated to us by those organisations that are in the front line of aid, including the collection of second-hand articles in good condition.

How was Aguja Solidaria born?

Aguja Solidaria was born as a result of the health crisis caused by the Covid 19 in 2020 and its lack of medical equipment.

In March our founder, María José Bernal, created an organisation with a group of people, with the sole purpose of helping to supply enough PPE to their frontline workers at the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.. As well as collecting food for the most in need during the hardest stages of the pandemic.

More than 400 people ended up forming part of the Aguja Solidaria Covid19 project, a wonderful project of which we are tremendously proud and of which we thank each and every one of the people who turned their support to this cause, and without a doubt, without each and every one of them, it would  have been impossible to obtain more than 120,000 thousand masks, and all PPE material needed during that moment. As well as more than 60,000kg of food collected in supermarkets and delivered to families and associations for distribution.

Thanks to all this, in 2021 we worked very hard to finally create a non-profit association in Marbella, and to continue fulfilling dreams through our new projects.

Our mission

In Aguja Solidaria we believe in the importance for our young people to have access to a good education for a better future with more opportunities, a future more committed to ourself, to the environment and the importance to create civic and social projects.

We believe in having an equal right with access to the same educational resources, from Aguja Solidaria we want to be able to support those families with lower economic resources so that their children have the same educational opportunities. Mainly by giving the value that corresponds to languages as an indispensable aspect nowadays, whether for travelling, working in Spain and/or abroad, socialising or simply for personal satisfaction, so that learning becames in something fun, not an obligation!  As well as all the school support that young people may need.

We will focus also in the importance that the environment deserves, in this case, it will be our Ambassador of Honour, Sarah Loinaz who will lead her personal project “Recycle, Be, Action” through her voluntary actions and talks. The project stems from her recent action in La Palma due to the current crisis with the Cumbre Vieja Volcano and the recent fire in Sierra Bermeja. With her talks we want to help to make our young people aware of the importance of a small gesture to create a big positive impact on the environment, that all the negative things we have done so far will serve as a lesson for us and turn into positive actions from now on, in order to have a better future.  Sarah’s mission is to make all young people aware of the importance of recycling and adapting simple healthy habits for our environment in our lives, as well as to serve as an example through her voluntary actions.

2021 Projects

EDUCATIONKIDS

Project 1 - Educational Sponsorship

Our main project is to support the majority children in needed, meanwhile they need it along the years. Not only to support them as well as giving them the confidence to continue with the illusion of studying and be part of their lifes for a better future. Through the schools, the individual needs will be determined with the teachers and scholarships will be granted which best suits each case: support classes in schools, language classes to reinforce English and give it the importance it deserves or Spanish classes for foreigners in a vulnerable situation and in need of social integration in schools. Do you want to sponsor educationally? Contact us at donaciones@agujasolidaria.org

Project 2 – Summer Camps

Our second main project, which will be carried out annually, is the summer camps. Always in Marbella or abroad, through agreements with internationally recognised academies. We want children with no resourses to have the same opportunities to learn, feel integrated and have fun. It is important that the language classes during the school year are reinforced during the summer and most importantly, that they are reinforced at the same time as they are having fun. Scholarships will be awarded for English language camps in Marbella or in Spanish in the case of foreigners in need of integration, and scholarships for English language courses/camps abroad, Do you want a summer educational sponsorship? Contact us at donaciones@agujasolidaria.org
