Additionally, participants take part in weekly social and sports training sessions utilizing the Real Madrid Foundation methodologies. This is a soccer program focused on women, which includes a total of 40 students. Of these, 30 are girls and 10 are boys.<\/span><\/p>The visit of representatives from Cruzda por los Ni\u00f1os and the Real Madrid Foundation coincided with the <\/span>start of the soccer championship<\/b> in one of the park’s communities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>Delegates from both organizations met with coaches and participants of the program, as well as some local family members. The women were even invited to go on a <\/span>safari<\/b> within Gorongosa National Park.<\/span><\/p>Ignacio Campo from Cruzada por los Ni\u00f1os highlighted the importance that this type of program has both for the Mozambican communities and for our university here in Spain:<\/span><\/p>\u201cFor us it is fundamental to have these types of programs to help raise awareness among our students. They become more aware of the significant needs that exist in other parts of the world. Furthermore, for those who benefit locally in Mozambique, these visits are of the greatest importance because they can help them get to know the people and the organizations that actively work together to help ensure them a brighter future,” said Campo.<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Cruzada por los Ni\u00f1os NGO team, which itself is a big part of CIS University\u2019s social responsibility efforts, traveled together with a team from the Real Madrid Foundation on a follow up trip in support of projects that both…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":36288,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_trash_the_other_posts":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[106,173],"tags":[54,251,380,384,381,223,159,382,383],"yoast_head":"\n
