María Cano Students Promote Community Impact Through Solidarity Initiative
- 22 abril, 2026
Students from the community practice program at Fundación Universitaria María Cano, Cali campus, led a donation drive in support of the community market organized by the San Francisco de Asís Community Development Center, contributing to the strengthening of local solidarity initiatives. This activity encouraged active student engagement in social responsibility processes, fostering values such as solidarity, commitment, and teamwork in real community contexts.
The San Francisco de Asís Community Development Center, located in the Siloé neighborhood, is a long-standing social initiative that has been promoting community well-being since 1977. Through collaborative efforts, it connects public, private, and community actors to support sustainable development and improve quality of life.
During the initiative, students contributed to the reinforcement of the community market, a space that facilitates access to essential resources and promotes mutual support among community members.
Through initiatives like this, Fundación Universitaria María Cano reaffirms its commitment to socially engaged education, connecting academic learning with community service and contributing to inclusive and sustainable social development.
