The institution of Volunteer Firefighters of the Thermal City, in conjunction with the Fundación Integrando Culturas Juana Manuela Gorriti, is carrying out a mega-collection for Three Wise Men.
The objective is to collect toys, school supplies, clothing, footwear and merchandise with non-perishable products to bring children from the most vulnerable neighborhoods of Rosario de la Frontera closer together.
"For this campaign we have agreed together with the Integrando Culturas Foundation to do work for the benefit of children, since Three Kings Day is coming up. For this we spoke with Dr. Cristina Elías, president of the Foundation, and The idea is to be able to reach the largest number of children through this important collection aimed at the most deprived people that we have in the surroundings of our community," said Luis Museda, inspector officer of the Volunteer Fire Department.

"In these areas, children are more isolated from Rosario de la Frontera and many parents do not have the opportunity to go to the city and buy a toy, clothes or shoes. That is why the objective is to reach all those vulnerable sectors" , said.
To donate
To all those members of the Rosario community who can collaborate, they should bring their donations to the Volunteer Firefighters institution, located at Figueroa Alcorta N§ 230 street.
"We understand that people give what they can, they are always lending a hand and they show solidarity with a grain of sand at every opportunity. They need toys, clothes, shoes, school supplies and any non-perishable food. In fact, Rosario de la Frontera has always stood out for its always very supportive neighbors and our institution always tries to reach the most vulnerable people," he said.
Previous collections
The inspecting officer recalled that the Volunteer Fire Department has been carrying out this type of solidarity campaign for years.
"Previous years and even in the middle of the pandemic, we have also organized ourselves at a time when the situation was not so vulnerable in terms of health, and we managed to collect through a collection, contributing materials to our hospital."
"Later on, when the epidemiological situation worsened, unfortunately we couldn't make any collections," he said.
Finally, he expressed: "The first thing is to be thankful because people always make their contribution with what they have, many times it is not about what they have left over but what they want to contribute, you will always be welcome, no matter what condition be".
"With your small contribution we help children who are in vulnerable conditions to have clothes, toys or their gift from the Three Wise Men."
It should be noted that the campaign will end with a tour around the city with the firefighters dressed as Three Wise Men.
