Viaggio della Speranza 2007

Posted Date: 30/03/2007




AZIONE VERDE


KNOWING US

Opera Don Bonifacio Azione Verde is a non-profit, voluntary organization of humanitarian actions.
The founder and president of the organization is Rev. Boniface Duru, a Nigerian priest of the catholic diocese of Orlu in Imo state Nigeria.. The organization was set up officially in the year 2000 in Italy and it was established with a notary act of the 24th September 2002 in Catanzaro, to promote human development through training and education of children and adults in Nigeria. The aim of the organization is to train the young to achieve a healthy and sustainable development in the third world countries. A nation that does not give attention to her children is nation without future. Education of children should aim to strengthen their capability and directing them to achieve reasonable projects to improve their quality of life in their native country. They must be thought to develop the right sense of justice and peace, love and charity, and actually learn to participate in human actions of solidarity. They must not grow with the idea of leaving their home and country to do unskilled work in other countries, but rather have prospect and certainty to be able to create a better tomorrow in their land, fighting corruption and social injustice, and at the same time engaging in scientific endeavors to discover solutions to their environmental biological geopolitical and social questions.

Both the young sick and the old need care because they are the weakest members of the society. Together with Azione Verde nine Maltese volunteers went to work at Nigeria for a couple of weeks to help those poor people and their children. The two main objects that we work on were the building of a primary school, which we left for the finishing touches. The next step is a secondary school and a clinic. These two projects are going to cost around Lm 35000. Although the work performed was very hard as no electric machinery can be used because no electricity is available, we managed to finish the construction of the first project. Apart from this we had to provide food, school education for more than 500 orphans that were under the foundation’s custody.

One can notice the amount of work and time we are investing for the sake of these people but we will not be able to do so without the help we have already received, and without the fund raising that we have to do in order to obtain the necessary money to continue our journey and work. This is also a cry for help for all those who would like to come and do voluntary work with us in Nigeria. Any skilled or non-skilled worker would be of help as we need doctors, nurses, builders and many others. Whoever is willing to help please contact:

Dear Sir/Madam,


Together with a  team from Azione Verde, the undersigned went on voluntary work in Nigeria for a couple of months to help those poor people and their children.

The two main objects that we worked on were the building of a primary school, which we left for the finishing touch.  The other object is a Secondary school and a clinic.

These two projects are going to cost around Lm 35000.
Lm 5000 on the first project and Lm 30000 on the second project.

Although the work performed was very hard as no electric machinery can be used, as there is no electricity, we succeeded to finish the construction on the first project.

As can be observed we are trying to do our best to help these people but now the main objective is the fund raising so that we could obtain the amount of money needed.

I hope that this letter will serve as an appeal to you so that if you can help in any way it would be much appreciated.


Thank you in anticipation for your help.
