During Solidarity Week , various initiatives were carried out in La Posta to promote and celebrate everyday acts of service and closeness, allowing us to connect with the needs of others.

Nurses from La Posta taught residents how to take their blood pressure, and the family doctor and nutritionist shared tips on healthy eating. Additionally, during the "Day of Solidarity ," the community was given a space to connect those in need with those who have something to give.

“It was a wonderful experience; I would come back every year. La Posta was a great support to me and my daughters, and it helped me grow as a person. It’s wonderful to be able to collaborate with them and give back,” said Vanesa Reinoso , a resident of the Las Lilas neighborhood. Dr. Claudia Lascano , director of La Posta, added: “The purpose of this activity is to have a ripple effect. To understand that solidarity, in its broadest sense, encourages us to think about how, within our means, we can help and give something to others.”

Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in women, and figures reported in our country in 2020 show that more than 5000 women died from this disease. Early detection of this pathology, in subclinical stages, reduces mortality from it by 20%.

The “Breast Cancer Prevention Program” is a collaborative proposal between Posta Sanitaria Las Lilas and Hospital Universitario Austral , with the support of our donors, for early diagnosis in women without medical insurance in the town of Derqui.

This program was launched thanks to the collaboration of the San Cristóbal Foundation and Asociart ART. Its main objective is the early detection of breast cancer in women attending health check-ups at the Las Lilas Health Post.

Children and teenagers up to 16 years old who attend La Posta were able to receive dental, pediatric, and ophthalmological care. Over 200 consultations were conducted during the two-day event . In addition, oral health and hand hygiene workshops were offered to children from Primary School No. 37 and Kindergarten No. 920. A total of 13 volunteers from the Medicine and Nursing programs provided support. Students from the Annual Rotating Internship program, who are currently rotating through La Posta, also participated.

With great joy we want to tell you that, during these months, La Posta received various forms of support.

The Itaú Bank Foundation and Kimberly-Clark renewed their support for the La Posta project. Kimberly-Clark also contributed diapers for children and adults, feminine hygiene products, and its employees organized collection drives for school supplies, non-perishable food items, and warm clothing for the families of La Posta.

The Central Tithe Pro-Life Association donated instruments and equipment for the nursing clinic. They added an electrocardiograph, a defibrillator, and a wheelchair. In addition, they donated a printer and a projector for the workshops offered at La Posta.

For their part, the Cauquén Kindergarten and the Los Caminos and Los Candiles schools contributed warm clothing for the children and families of La Posta.

Banco Galicia and Asociación Conciencia made it possible to carry out, for the second consecutive year, the "Family Economy" workshops, providing information and tools on topics of saving, credit and investment, to the community.

Also in June, the University Life program organized the first edition of the "Austral Runs" marathon . As part of this event, a trial lens kit with 266 lenses was donated to the ophthalmology clinic.

We thank all the institutions that collaborate with enthusiasm, generosity and commitment, as well as each of our individual donors, since with their help they make it possible for us to support the families who attend La Posta.
