Project snapshot

Tenarenses en el Exterior is an initiative that focuses on integrating young people into sports to keep them engaged and away from the temptations of street life. We organize kermeses (festivals), which are family-friendly events that have become a cherished tradition in our community. This year, we’re aiming to form 6 teams?more than we’ve had previously?to ensure a broader participation base. Not only do these events offer competitive sports that culminate in a trophy for the winning team, but they also have a lively atmosphere with music from a DJ. Our objectives go beyond the games; we seek to unite the community, understand its needs, and maintain a clean and welcoming environment for the events.
