    Description

    We are a Cooperative school with 25 years of experience. In 2014, the Municipality of Capilla del Monte, recognizing our pedagogical work for the community, donated land to us. On that land, we have 4 modules planned. The first was built in 2014. Now we are starting to build the second module of 4 sustainable classrooms, and we need help to continue with the eco-construction. Thank you!
