About us

We are a non-profit civil association called Agapao Argentina dedicated to the social, cultural and sports area. Its primary objective is to provide assistance, training and advice to those who have less. Defense of the rights of children, the elderly and people of different abilities. Our motto is "Do not refuse to do good to whom it may concern when you have the power to do so."

History

Agapao Argentina was founded by Ana Manrique and Daniel Palomar in the month of June of the year 2005. It was during 2001, a difficult year, where he settled in the city of Grand Bourg , a community dining room where two hundred and fifty people were served every day, later extending to social work with a group of street children at the Retiro station, in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. We could not ignore the great need of people. From that moment the idea of founding a humanitarian aid organization called; Agapao Argentina.

Volunteering

The social volunteering, body of action of Agapao Argentina , is a group of people who, voluntarily and selflessly, execute the various social, cultural and sports activities. The motivation of volunteering is altruistic and selfless actions to perform free of charge the solidarity tasks they assume of their own free will, thus dedicating their time with love, respect and solidarity spirit.
