Our institution's day-to-day has been experiencing pressure of various types. We want to be able to continue to fulfill our mission in the best way possible, so we need the support of everyone who can do so.
The Nossa Senhora das Dores de Ortiga Social Solidarity Center is currently facing the urgency of creating more rooms to meet current legislative assumptions regarding the standards of the Social Security Institute. However, despite having always been a solid institution, it is currently in a vulnerable situation due to several factors such as: the covid pandemic, whose adaptation requirement was extremely damaging in financial terms; an outbreak of scabies (between the end of 2022 and the beginning of 2023), which put pressure on the institution's water consumption, as well as washing clothes (reflected in a considerable increase in water and electricity consumption); alongside, of course, the consequences of the War. Therefore, we created this crowdfunding to support us in this most financially tense moment. Our social bodies are completely voluntary and the amount we intend to reach is only used for the Centre's current expenses, at a stage in which we take for granted the need to restructure our ERPI response. We count on everyone's support, because everyone counts!
