It’s in Victoria and they need to do a hardwood floor and new hoops. They sell raffles and a bonus contribution to reach the goal at Christmas.
The Victoria Social and Development Club, located on Ingeniero White street at 1153 of that town in San Fernando, is a historic institution for neighborhood families. Since XXXX It plays a fundamental role among the residents of the North Zone: in addition to promoting sports, it brings people together and gives them a sense of belonging.
This year, a new objective brought together neighbors and partners with a common dream: renovate the basketball court to be able to participate in competitions and official leagues. The project is to change the tiled surface for a wooden one, a requirement of professional tournaments.
It is because on wood, the level of play is different, the court is free of obstructions and the speed in the matches is higher.
Mauricio Tarullo, secretary of the club, affirms that the members feel the institution as their home and that is why it grew by leaps and bounds thanks to its donations, savings and collaboration on the whole. It is no coincidence that the motto is “Together we can”.
In addition to growing the sport, Social and Fomento Victoria aims to include vulnerable families in San Fernando. One of the movements that they organized in recent times was a campaign to get shoes for boys of low resources.
the collection
By word of mouth and through social networks, the members and leaders of Club Victoria are selling contribution vouchers and raffles to pay for the materials and work on the new basketball court.
The objective is to build a floating wooden floor and, in addition, to change the rings, with the height and distance required to compete. What already began was the blacksmith work.
For that, they will raffle a motorcycle this Christmas and offer a contribution bonus worth $3,000. However, the authorities clarify that all help is used to meet the desired goal.
“We have already started the purchase of materials and you can help us by buying a raffle or simply donating so that our basketball continues to grow and participate in more competitions,” says the club’s official website.
According to Tarullo, “sport not only generates competition but also discipline, camaraderie, responsibility, community and friendship.” The leader said: “Here we do social work that is not merely sports. We build people and help them go through life in the best possible way by providing them with tools.”
Regarding the campaign to build the new basketball stadium, he clarified: “The main objective is socialization, the second is to compete and eventually win, but the main thing is to propose a favorable space so that athletes can develop more comfortably.”
Inclusion as a flag
In Victoria they clarify that one of the pillars of the club is to allow all residents to access their facilities. On the one hand, the social quota is accessible. But they also constantly carry out activities and collections to raise money for social movements.
On the Facebook page of the institution, the advances of the field that, they hope, will be finished for the Holidays are disseminated daily: double reason for celebration.
