September 5, World Day of Charity (International Day of Charity)<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n\n

Within a global context where entire populations live in situations of extreme social vulnerability, the practice of charity increasingly takes on the role of being of great need for the alleviation of human suffering.<\/p>\n\n

The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who died September 5, 1997, inspired the United Nations (UN) in its choice of the date to celebrate the World Day of Charity.<\/p>\n\n

The Expression of Charity<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n\n

The\u00a0<\/span>Fraternity \u2013 International Humanitarian Federation (FIHF)<\/span><\/a>\u00a0acts so that an expression of charity goes beyond material aid and contributes to the growth and development of the human being, strengthening their independence and fostering their autonomy, waking up and encouraging their qualities and gifts.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

Based on that premise, the\u00a0<\/span>Humanitarian Fraternity (FIHF)<\/span><\/a>\u00a0founded and coordinates the\u00a0<\/span>Indigenous Cultural and Training Centre (CCFI)<\/span><\/a>, with the support of Operation Welcome. Through the\u00a0<\/span>Livelihoods and Lasting Solutions Sector<\/span><\/a>, the CCFI offers free training, courses and workshops to the indigenous people coming from Venezuela, Guiana and parts of Brazil, mostly concentrated in Roraima. So that the various activities offered can take place, the\u00a0<\/span>CCFI<\/span><\/a>\u00a0relies on the cooperation of various other organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n

The CCFI developed a simple way of helping by offering the knowledge to create lasting solutions, through which immigrants and refugees can change their lives with the possibility of gaining their autonomy through income generation.<\/p>\n\n

What the\u00a0<\/span>CCFI<\/span><\/a>\u00a0offers ranges from gaining literacy, arts and exhibitions, to courses on financial education and planning for the future, up to entrepreneurship through the teaching of bakery, shoemaking, and sales promotion.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
