Nacho's nomination story

I really like to collaborate and to cooperate within my means. I sent money to the Haiti disaster (75?) and to the earthquake in Lorca (Murcia/ Spain) (60?). And as for collaborating in my village I form part of a Youth Association. My friends and I created the Association 16 years ago and today the Association (with new young members) is still active and organizing activities for others.

We've organized Music Contests, Theatrical plays?and what we call Street Games" which are a type of old games which were played in my village by our ancestors. The objective of playing these games during the "Street Games" week was not to lose the tradition by teaching kids the rules and showing them how to play. And the most important thing, we tried to instil in them the true value of a game, to know how to win and to know how to lose and always respecting the rivals. Still today when I see the kids playing some of these games on the street I feel huge satisfaction inside. CR
