Solidarity masks in the Iberica Province

A few weeks ago, the Iberica office of the Marist development agency SED initiated a new project with the “Mothers in Solidarity” network operating in the Iberica Province schools. The project aimed to produce masks and distribute them in the most needy localities. Other groups have since joined the initiative: the “Families in Solidarity” group from Marist College, Villalba; the PASOS group from San José del Parque school, Madrid; and the “Mothers in Solidarity” groups from the Marist schools in Guadalajara and Talavera de la Reina.

With the support of the Edelvives Foundation, SED Ibérica is covering the cost of all materials purchased to carry out this admirable initiative.
