Project Goal: 1. Ayuda 1. Help 2. Oportunidad 2. Opportunity 3. Compromiso 3. Commitment 4. Conciencia 4. Conscience Root Cause: La necesitad que enfrentan miles de familias que no tienen nada de alimentos que darles a sus hijos, los cuales ven sus oportunidades de estudio y una vida prospera en el futuro trancada por la necesidad de ayudarles a sus padres en la busqueda de alimentos, o personas mayores los cuales pasan hambre, ya que su pension o " entradas" economicas no son suficientes para abastecer todo en su hogar. The need facing thousands of families who have no food to give to their children, who see their opportunities to study and live a propserous life in the future cut short by the need to help their parents in search of food, or the elderly, who go hungry because their retirement pension and/or 'income' aren't sufficient to supply everone in their house. Project Plan: Con la ayuda de mi Familia, amigos y miembros del PeceaJam Costa Rica, trataremos de abordar este gran problema; mediante la busqueda de donaciones de alimentos, y repartirlas a las Familias o personas que conoscamos que necesiten urgentemente estos alimentos para que sus vidas se vuelvan mas gratas y con mas oportunidades. With the help of my family, friends and members of PeceaJam Costa Rica, we will try to address this major problem by seeking food donations and distribute them to families or individuals who urgently need the food so that their lives can improve and they ca have more opportunities.
