Proposal: 500 Nounish gifts for vulnerable kids in Colombia at Christmas

Context

There are some underprivileged communities in Bogotá, Colombia, where the NGO: Convivencias (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10203402379272919&type=3) has tried to bring them a project every Christmas, in which some workshops are provided to the families to promote the good treatment at their home, and when they complete it, a lunch and a gift is given to every child there.

Due to the COVID-19 and the economic recession, we couldn’t go there the past 2 years but this year we want to ask NounsDao for help and if you decide it, make you the protagonist to achieve a big goal of 500 Nounish Christmas Gifts ⌐◨-◨ .

A gift for coexistence

Our purpose is to continue with the campaign “A gift for coexistence”, a social cause that started in 2010 to promote in Ciudad Bolivar (The locality with more needs in Bogotá) the good treatment of children through family strengthening workshops and culminating with the celebration of Christmas offering a detail for them. These gifts will be delivered on December 23-24 of this Christmas to children of social class 1 and 2. To check the impact of previous years please visit this NFT collection where we have just uploaded a bit of it https://opensea.io/es/collection/a-gift-for-coexistence.

Great initiative. I like that it was already a tradition, has been done many times before, and is already an institution you have a relationship with.
