translated from Spanish: The River Foundation donated food to more than 300 families

The solidarity foundation of the River Plate Athletic Club reported that during the month of May it made donations to the families of the children who participate in the programs carried out by the institution and claimed that they reached 3300 people: all distributed in 320 bags of food and hygiene. Values to the Court and New Horizons are the programs assigned for kids who live in the River House. By Nuevos Horizones, 63 families benefited in Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Tucumán, Córdoba, Corrientes, Misiones, Chaco, San Juan and La Rioja. And, for Valores a la Cancha, another 257 families in the area of Greater Buenos Aires, Hurlingam, Villa Itatí, Lomas de Zamora, Villa de Mayo and San Martín.

Bags are customized due to the needs of each family and contain non-perishable foods, vegetables, fruits and hygiene products to stock up for a month.” From Fundación River we seek to promote the development of boys, girls and adolescents, but the context of the pandemic forced us to make ourselves more flexible and seek creative solutions, not only to be able to move forward with our work, but to respond to the needs of the families with which we work, including those of the boys of the lower club,” explained Clara D’Onofrio , president of the entity. In addition, they donated more than 1500 kilos of food and 614 bazaar elements to six allied river foundation organizations, such as San José Parish in La Matanza, the Didascalio Santa Teresa del Niño Jesús de Lomas de Zamora School and the Yasí Porá and Tupá Mbae communities in Iguazu, Misiones, among others.
