Activities with children from Barrio Nigeria

 

Students from our branch campus in Guayaquil visited the vulnerable sector of Barrio Nigeria, located in Isla Trinitaria, as part of missions carried out by students in the university.  

Students carried out several activities related to accounting and administration of micro businesses, they helped repair the electrical installations of some homes and helped celebrate mass. 

During one week, about 600 people from this sector participated in the activities students had planned. "It is important that our students live this experience and help", said Raul Conza, director of the pastoral department.

Students were able to see the real needs of people and think about how they can contribute professionally to solve those needs and problems. "It was a great experience for students and we invite other students to join us in future missions", said Juan Jose Rocha, coordinator of the pastoral department.
