Join as a subereña volunteer family
Subireña families have a notable role in the proposal for learning and cooperation at the same time that Subir al Sur develops. When we talk about cooperation at the same time, we try to replicate our proposal of equality as subjects, equality reflected in action, we believe in a world in which, regardless of where we come from, we can put our energies together to build another possible world. We invite the community to be part of this project.
The families that host volunteers are essential for the proposal to grow in Argentina, because they are the ones who accompany the young people and help them to better understand our country and culture. Suberañas families thus become the guides of the young people who decide to offer their help. They are guides that from within, from the home teach our way of life, our way of seeing and acting.
We work to make it possible for young people and families to meet. Our purpose is not that young people are in the family homes as simple guests, but that they can integrate and collaborate to contribute to the functioning of the home with an active and cooperative role.
Benefits of being a subereña family:
- Host a young person from another country
