Help for a good cause

[Rafa]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to ba expats, I work in BA for a charity organisation called 'Club Union de Los Pibes' which helps out kids in Baracas, Constitucion and La Boca, we have for the past 4 years served as a community centre for the kids, somewhere to learn english, help with spanish homework, teach them new skills and well try to show them some affection that is sometimes lacking at home
Unfortunately are lease ran out in December for the centre, and we had to leave, we have looked for months in vain, looking for a new place to hold our classes and set up the centre, we don't want to stop running the club as its important to the kids. Reason i'm writing is well, we are getting pretty desperate, as it is proving harder than we thought to find a place, as a result i'm asking if anybody here knows of ANY space, place, indoor area, centre, anything in the southern barrios that is available and we would be able to rent out, or even use for free.

Any help or suggestions guys would be greately appreciated,
Rafa

Rafa, have you talked to anyone at BOCA (the Club)? DM me, I have done work with the club on different events and I'd be happy to pass you some contact info...maybe you could do something in the club grounds.
