Our Mission in Guamal’s Solidarity Team 2020 Campaign

CAMPAIGN:

Solidarity 2020

SUBTITLE:

“Add a little more to the pot.”

MOTTO:

“Let’s come together in solidarity, Guamaleros.”

GENERAL PURPOSE:

Mobilize solidarity throughout the community of Guamal to help the poorest and most abandoned.

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES:

✓Respond strategically to assist the most vulnerable population suffering from the economic crisis due to the isolation measures put in place by the national government to control Covid-19. ✓Promote collaborative work with all the leaders of the different institutions of the municipality and community leaders.
✓Keep track of those most vulnerable in the municipality of Guamal.
✓Generate short, medium and long-term processes of social development in the most vulnerable population of the municipality of Guamal.

JUSTIFICATION:

Solidarity 2020 is a social campaign that the STs are starting in the Guamal mission to awaken the sense of charitable acts within the community. One aim is that we are asking the wealthiest families to “add a little more to the pot ” when preparing their lunch in order to donate one to us, or they can deliver the lunches themselves to the houses of the poorest members of the community, especially those who do not receive any subsidy from the State, who survive on what they produce in their daily living, from picking and peddling.

With leaders in the communities, we are doing a census to identify as best as we can all the most vulnerable people (migrant population, female heads of household, homeless children, people with disabilities and abandoned senior citizens).

With the census, we can better prioritize the needs for lunches and basics for food pantries (rice, lentils, spaghetti, flour, oats, etc.).

The census, with the help of the Catholic Church, other institutions and us as STs, will also help the national government in promoting the social development of this most vulnerable population.
