TRAFIGURA ATHENS 3RD YEAR – APRIL 2015
NAVIGATOR SHIPPING CONSULTANTS LTD participated to the Trafigura Athens 3rd year’s fundraising initiative with the support and assistance of the Onassis Cultural Centre and in cooperation with the children of SOS Village in Vari by offering the amount of EURO 1,000 to the project “Προσφέρω γιατί νοιάζομαι – I give because I care” of the “Μαζί για το παιδί – Together for children” association.
For your information, this fund-raising effort, that has been motivated by the extremely difficult social and financial situation afflicting all Greek society and by its consequences on socially vulnerable groups, especially children, is enthusiastically supported by the Trafigura Foundation (www.trafigurafoundation.com)
The funds are used to support the project “Προσφέρω γιατί νοιάζομαι – I give because I care” of the “Mαζί για το παιδί – Together for children” association for a number of months.
Main idea is to have on board this activity the children of SOS village themselves which on 13 December will dance on the main stage of the OCC in a Dancing to Connect Performance after months of coaching and rehearsals.
“Dancing to Connect” is an educational program, supported by the OCC for a number of years which seeks to give school children the opportunity to discover codes of collaboration and communication through dance. The OCC will be bringing SOS children in contact with contemporary dance with the target, through the choreographies, to enjoy the result of collective work and improvisation and reveal the connecting power of dance.
This initiative serves a dual goal and scope: first to give the opportunity to the children of the SOS Villages to discover the joy of such an advanced program and secondly to enable them to feel the pleasure of working for a common goal and offer whatever is collated to someone that needs it more than them.
