Details
Somos Uno is a gala organized by the foundations Invest for Children and Mi Fundación Alex with the aim of raising funds to promote the inclusion of all individuals with diverse abilities in our society. This event seeks to raise awareness within the community about the importance of creating inclusive environments where everyone has the opportunity to fully develop, regardless of their skills or conditions. Through this gala, resources are sought to carry out programs and projects that promote equal opportunities and respect for diversity.
Mi Fundación Alex is leading projects to promote inclusive sailing in Barcelona during the 37th America's Cup. In collaboration with the Catalan Sailing Federation and the Barcelona Nautical Capital Foundation, an Adapted Sailing School and an Adapted Sailing Team are being created, and an International Open Regatta will be organized in July 2024 during the Spain Hansa Championship. These initiatives aim to promote the inclusion of people with disabilities in the nautical field and encourage joint participation in sports events.
Invest for Children has been collaborating for years with Aura Fundació, which is dedicated to integrating individuals with intellectual disabilities, mainly Down syndrome, into the regular job market using the Supported Employment methodology. This methodology prepares candidates considering their abilities and support needs, thus facilitating their successful job integration.
