During the WhatsApp interview held with Cintia Rojas, she highlighted the benefits coming from the tree donation by the Agrecol Trees project, which contributes to the community through the planting of different kinds of fruit trees. This means a valuable additional food input for the vulnerable population with whom they are working. She also explained the other benefits coming from the plantation and care of the trees, such as group project management, as well as the development of values like collaboration and responsibility. The emotional result that this guardian emphasizes is seeing the kids and youngsters happily and excitedly partaking in these activities, which will certainly bear fruit in the near future.
