Every weather event that affects the living
conditions of Argentine families causes an organization that strives for
everyone to live in decent housing pain. These incidents seem to be backwards
steps on a path which itself goes uphill.
The storm in Buenos Aires and La Plata affected
neighborhoods with distinct characteristics in different ways. Although HPHA
has specialized in providing assistance to remote communities in events of this
nature, the organization does not intend to withhold its support from those who
assisted the victims with such solidarity.
Brigade of Volunteers
for the clean-up of houses
For this reason, HPHA brought together
volunteers to join a brigade for the cleanup of houses on Saturday, April 13.
Here, HPHA offered its volunteers to two churches in La Plata: el CentroCristiano de la Unión and Puertas del Cielo.
The 21 participating volunteers were divided
into groups to help eight families clean up the destruction that the storm had
left. They cleaned floors, walls, and even furniture. In addition, a group
toured a more precarious settlement to evaluate the damage.
Weather events afflict the most precarious
communities throughout the year, in many parts of the country. There is much to
do in the most remote communities.
You can join the Team of Volunteers for
Remote Communities and Disaster Response!
