Guest 2: Certainly! This collaboration aims to raise awareness about Fair Trade and local products while also contributing to social causes. We believe that by supporting these initiatives, we can create opportunities for people in impoverished communities to achieve a dignified life. The idea came about when we realized the power of networking and collaboration between different organizations. By working together, we can achieve more and make a bigger impact.
Guest 1: Wonderful. The three performances of the zarzuela “El Huésped de Sevillano” are also being held this weekend at the Amaia. Could you explain the significance of this production and how it ties into the association’s mission?
Guest 2: Yes, “El Huésped de Sevillano” is an iconic zarzuela that was first performed in 1926. It’s a beautiful piece that reflects the rich history and culture of Spain. By staging this production, we want to not only entertain but also educate our audience about the art form and its importance. Furthermore, the proceeds from the ticket sales and raffles will go towards supporting projects that align with our mission of promoting social development and equality.
Guest 1: That’s very inspiring. Can you tell us more about the Ankur Children’s Center in Mumbai and the program that Mundukide is carrying out in Mozambique, which will benefit from the proceeds of this event?
Guest 2: The Ankur Children’s Center is a project that provides education, healthcare, and other basic necessities to underprivileged children in Mumbai. Mundukide’s program in Mozambique focuses on empowering local communities through economic development and access to resources. Both projects aim to provide long-term solutions to alleviate poverty and promote self-sufficiency. The funds generated from the raffle and ticket sales will go directly towards these initiatives, helping to improve the lives of countless individuals.
