Silria Paulino
I have been a volunteer for a few years, but it was the first time I participated in an action by the Vale Volunteer Network. It was a very learning moment, seeing the gratitude on the faces of the families who were there to receive the school kit. I congratulate everyone involved. I feel that, in fact, the winners are us, the volunteers.
– Silria Paulino, a volunteer with the Vale Volunteer Network in the donation of school kits by the Knowledge Stations in Tucumã.
