OUR FOUNDATION MARIA ELENA ZUÑIGA BELLATIN
In our foundation we work to find the best quality of life in rural areas, advising them and, above all, providing constant support and maintenance for their long duration.
We allocate a percentage of each itinerary for each cause, this amount is an immense help for the development of projects and advice to the people who receive this help.
The first project, considered one of the most important is:
ROOF IMPROVEMENT PROJECT IN RURAL HOUSES IN THE PROVINCE OF ACOMAYO
We consider this project the most important due to the low temperatures recorded in the support area, the province of Acomayo, located almost 3 hours by car south of the city.
After an investigation we obtained an alarming record of houses that did not have a good roof, registering leaks during the rainy season and even collapses endangering the health and integrity of the inhabitants of these houses, and even more in the cold season , where respiratory diseases recorded a high number especially in children under 10 years and in the elderly, putting their lives in serious danger.
We allocate an approximate USD 950.00 per house, we begin by temporarily conditioning a space so that the family can sleep without problems.
All the bras and tiles are removed to replace them with new ones, creating a reinforcement in the walls and replacing all the supports, applying a layer of wood cover and new tiles, covering possible water and / or wind leaks. Ensuring a roof resistant to the strong climatic seasons of the area for at least 10 years, resolved in approximately 8 days. In some cases and according to the evaluation of the house by the technical team of the foundation, the budget may vary to be able to comply with the times and materials that the family requires.
