SOCIAL LABOR.- WEEK 1




IT WAS SATURDAY MORNING JUNE 26TH whe we visited cooperativa the todas, it wsa our first visit and we all were very nervous,in our firsdt visit we were going to explain to the socias whast was our visit during 12 saturdays about.
we arrive to the cooperativa at nine o`clock and we started to talk wiht the socias. first we explained the our proyect and how this would help them like support and advice to their business and give them training about some interesting topics in order to contribute to their development. then we wanted to know them more so the socias decided to tell us their stories of their lifes. it was very shocking listening to thaeir tellings because there i realize how lucky i am to have some thing that they do not have for exapmple i can study and manny of them didnt have the chance to do that, one socia told us that she got married really young and she dint finish highschool so her husband never let her study so she had to study behind his bqack. and stories like that we listened the all morning and that made me realize that they are the clear example of perseverance and constance.

after listening to all the stories then we asked them about what topics would they like to learn about so we could prepare that to the next week and also in order to improve their lifes and business, so with these information we could start the training and advice the next week. They told us that they wanted to learn about marketing, also about English, they liked also to learn about computer.


wherbn we left Coopertavia de todoas , my friends and me started to create a discourse so we could stard making our capacitation. we started by detecting the necessities and problems of the socias. we started totalk toeach other and we studied the problems in order to make decisions about what is the best to teach and what we can do to improve and help the socias´s business.

finally i want this social labor not just for my grade but instad i think this is a great start to change our socity, today we start in one place but tomorrow we can be helping many communities. i think that teaching other peopple what we know its an excellent way to puto our knowledge in practice.

  1. Denisse - It might be interesting for the socias to have one week to teach your group something too. This would show how valuable their knowledge is even though they all did not finish high school or go to university. I am glad that you are enjoying your work with these ladies and that you are learning valuable lessons.
