As part of your engagement in the development of the local communities nearby our operations and values shared, we decided to  provide our support to the local health center of General Artigas town.

To this aim, we purchase 4 air conditioners of 12,000 BTU for the boarding and emergency rooms which were so lacking until now – especially given Paraguayan hot weather. In maternity service, parents and families will be able to enjoy their newborn child without being afraid of the heat. the atmosphere will be more peaceful for all the medical staff too.

We also took care of the related installation as well as the renovation of some part of the electrical system (generator, wiring connection, programmer, etc).

Finally, we purchase also a glass swing door for the emergency room.

The medical station improved its services and fills a gap in terms of basic equipments.

Campos has a position of responsibility in areas that exceed the strictly economic and business activity and has a concern about the problems that exist in the local communities in which it operates .

To this aim, we decided to buy orthopaedic wheelchairs to 3 kids, of which 2 were victims of road accidents and a 6 year old girl that suffer from maturational and developmental delays from birth, that lead to enhanced very significantly their own quality of life so as for their families. The kids concerned are all from Melo zone nearby La Esperanza farm.

This action has been taken via a local non-profit organization called MADER and which will also make sure that another child may benefit from those equipments if it became no more useful or appropriate for their current beneficiaries.

Below you will find some pictures taken at the event organized by MADER association where the kids and their families received their equipments from Campos representatives, Mr Alfredo Nuñez and his wife Maria which was actively involved in this action.

As part of our engagement in the development of the local communities nearby our operations and values shared, we decided to renovate the school of the village of Arequita which is near Salitre Cue farm. We wanted to create a healthy environment for 9 children and their teacher attempting the school, and promote favourable work conditions for them.

On March 23rd 2012, the first corn harvest for charity was done with great success in Santa María farm. This important solidarity event was organized by San Jorge School, Lujan Church (both from Trinidad City) and Campos Orientales. The corns from the lot donated by our company were hand-harvested and bagged by the students, parents, teachers, nuns, priests and out staff. The corn bags were sent to different assistance centersof the area.

It was a huge opportunity to show how a company and its community can work together for solidarity purposes .
