Rebuilding The Future - The Buenaventura We All Deserve

I used to be the type of Buenaventurean who would often question why certain things weren’t being done to improve our beloved city. I would often use this as an excuse to accept that the city was in a state of replica watches uk despair, and that it was up to those who still lived there to resolve the insurmountable issues it was facing. However, my attitude changed when I was invited by Pasarela de Inclusion to participate in a campaign to reopen the department (state) post-pandemic. This was a gubernatorial initiative to reopen the department (state) for tourism, where they invited a fashion designer from each city, municipality, replica Breitling watches  or town to represent their own with a video runway presentation to be aired on national TV. I was honored to represent my beloved Buenaventura.

After many years of not visiting, I returned to my hometown in September 2021 and was shocked to see the city’s excruciating deteriorating condition. It was then that I realized that I had to take action. This realization was the catalyst that I needed to confront the extreme poverty and despair that plagued my town. I knew that I had to become an active member of the change and transformation of the narrative and the conditions that the city and the region were going through. In May of 2023, I returned to my hometown armed with courage, faith, and love to change the narrative of the destiny of my people.

I am proud to announce that my foundation is leading the vision to construct of an ecosystem of high-end fashion manufacturing hubs in partnership with local organizations such as RAP Pacifico, Pastoral Social de Buenaventura, FonBuenaventura, Subsidio Familiar, Asociacion de Mujeres Asomub, SENA, Comfandi, Alcaldia Distrital de Buenaventura, Escuela Taller de Buenaventura, and Movimiento Social Paro Civico. The manufacturing hub will cater to the market niche of emerging designers worldwide and will employ the professionally-trained workforce of Buenaventura to fulfill their every high-end fashion manufacturing need.  Our goal is to create jobs, transform lives and change the negative narrative of our territory.  fake watches for sale

It’s worth noting that my uncle Nazario introduced me to the John Jairo from International Social Afro Foundation, which in turn introduced me to Father Reyna. The rest is history.
