If you are planning to travel to Argentina, this is a great opportunity to combine touring the country with a visit to our program. You will be able to be part of our activities with the scholars, our Saturday educational activities, after school support classes, visit the schools where the scholars attend classes, meet with each school tutor and director, and visit with the families of the scholars.
Best time to travel is during the Argentinean school year to make sure everyone participating in the program is available. The school year starts during the middle of March and ends during November. We always host a big end of year meeting during December to conclude the yearly activities, talk about all that we have accomplished, think about what we would like to accomplish during the next year and wish everyone a safe and good summer break.
We believe this summer break is important for the children because during the whole year, they not only assume
responsibilities from their daily school work but also from our program. They must reach good grades at school, if not they must go to after school tutoring at Fundacion COINED, activities during Saturday mornings are a must and any weekly meetings should also be attended.

TIPS WHEN ARRANGING YOUR TRIP:
|
Travel from end of March to mid December
You may take advantage of this trip and generate a campaign amongst your friends and family to help you take donations with you
Cordoba is 1 hr away by plane from Buenos Aires or 10 hrs by bus. (overnight comfortable bus). If cost is a concern,
taking the bus is an option to consider ($40) versus plane ($250 or more).
Make sure you let us know when you travel so we may plan an itinerary of visits for you

| NEXT TRIP : Taramin Lourie |
Taramin Lourie is traveling to argentina during March.
(Just a small comment about Taramin, for her real job, she is a flight attendant so she gets to travel
for really cheap, isn't she lucky!)
Anyway, even though she is a new member at GO Give an Opportunity she is president of the non-profit corporation and will be solely traveling to get familiarized with the program in general. Both internal and external maters, the daily operations and meeting with the volunteers and scholar and their families.
We would like to take advantage of this trip and give Taramin things to take to give our scholars. It is
preferred to just make a one time donation to us and on the paypal form just detail that the purpose
of this donation is Taramin's donations to the children and we will destine this money solely for the donations
she is going to be making personally and directly.
NOTES:
To make monetary donations, you may make an online donation
