The Model, seeks social inclusion and community empowerment through the development of associative productive projects, using the resources obtained from individuals and institutions that are at the same time transformed by solidarity. The participants in turn, as they develop new abilities and stable income, should continue the “solidarity chain” joining the community in the development of other people in their communities.

What goals do we have through The Model?

- The social and cultural transformation is the main goal, and the inclusion project, the means to achieve it.

- Job generation is not our goal; it is the main instrument to obtain social inclusion. 

- The Model seeks that individuals who participate in the process are transformed as they help and support a vulnerable community.

- The individuals’ transformation must transcend the cultural change in society, achieving solidarity to be recognized as a fundamental value for the development of the country.
