Quiet Acts of Kindness: How Natuflor Supports Quito’s Youth

This belief fuels our monthly donation to the Circulo de Gracias, a dedicated organization that bridges the gap between societal needs and available resources. Through their unwavering efforts, our support is channeled into the Sol de Primavera Foundation, a beacon of hope for adolescents and young adults in Quito who face poverty and extreme adversity.

Sol de Primavera Foundation focuses on providing technical and professional training for at-risk youth, equipping them with skills to build brighter futures. One of their core programs addresses a critical need: nutrition.

Thanks to our contribution, 70 adolescents and young adults receive daily nutritional support, including a fortified breakfast and a full lunch. This essential nourishment is more than just a meal; it’s a stepping stone toward better health, concentration, and emotional well-being.

The statistics underscore the challenges faced by these youth and the vital role of nutritional support:

16 adolescents are medically diagnosed with malnutrition, reflected in low weight and height.

42% experience gastrointestinal issues, anemia, and related health concerns.

50% struggle with vision problems.

100% require dental care, from routine checkups to urgent treatments.

Our donation covers 8% of the project’s nutrition budget, directly contributing to the health and vitality of these young individuals. By addressing their nutritional needs, we enable them to focus on their education and psychological programs with renewed energy and clarity.

Sharing meals goes beyond physical sustenance; it fosters a sense of belonging and joy. These daily gatherings become moments of connection, building a family-like atmosphere where smiles and laughter abound despite the challenges these youth face.

This impact wouldn’t be possible without the unwavering support of our customers. Your trust in Natuflor allows us to extend our mission beyond flowers and into the lives of those who need it most. Together, we are planting seeds of change and nurturing a better future for these young individuals.

Let’s continue to walk this path of compassion and solidarity, striving to do even more for the youth of Sol de Primavera.
