To celebrate the Day of the Physiotherapist on October 13, the Notre Dame Hospitals (Júlia Billiart, Não-Me-Toque and São Sebastião, Espumoso) held the Twelfth Edition of the Concrete Gesture Project. The solidarity campaign aims to assist children who are socially vulnerable and help them with their basic needs.
This year, about 200 children benefited from the project. The beneficiaries are from Tia Nastácia and Tia Sibyla Schools in Não Me Toque and from the Municipal School of Early Childhood Education, in Espumoso.
Sister Margarete Cerutti, the Project Coordinator, thanked all the people directly or indirectly involved and highlighted the importance of the project when she stated:
“The smiles of the children we experienced during the distributions of the donations are our motivation to continue with the Project! We nurture the conviction that through this project we are bringing joy and love to these little ones.”
