The Unit also previously delivered the work materials and snacks for the four days of the strategy", added the director of the entity in the region.

Finally, the official said that each group of 10 children worked four days in a row for two and a half hours a day, for a total of 40 minors in these two weeks and that "it was a very beautiful experience for both the children and their families and for the Unit officials, Iliana Ruiz and Álix Aguilar, who were in charge of implementing the strategy”.
