Socorro Nicaragua is a humanitarian organization that was founded on 5 September. 2004. The main purpose of the project is to improve the conditions and quality of life of children and young people. At the same time, creating a future through education and leisure activities. Also combating child labour, mistreatment and sexual abuse, preventive health and improving housing conditions. All this in collaboration with home and school and the local community in general.
The project is run in the Mario Quan district of León. A poor district north of the capital Managua. Many families live here in very difficult conditions, several of the families were evacuated here after Hurricane Mitch in 1998. Many of the children are orphans.
The organization is run from Norway by very enthusiastic Norwegian nurses. This work is largely done on a voluntary basis. This has made a big impression on us at Oslo Plastikkirurgi . We therefore want to support this effort and wish you the best of luck with your work.
The organization has been approved by the Norwegian Tax Administration for the deduction of monetary gifts from and including the income year 2006. See the organisation's website: www.socorronicaragua.no
