Estudiantes Concordienses Unidos (ECU) expressed their gratitude for the donation and announced that the light fixtures will be distributed among the 22 participating floats.
The contribution from the Municipality of Concordia to ECU stems from the mayor Enrique Cresto's decision to collaborate with the work carried out by the students in the construction of the traditional floats.
“We have received many requests from students who, due to economic issues, were unable to access the light bulbs. This was conveyed to mayor Enrique Cresto, and he managed to provide the students with 900 light bulbs,” commented the General Secretary of the Mayor's Office, Matias Soto, regarding the matter.
Likewise, the official remarked that “those of us who experienced this festival in our adolescence know that the support students receive today from the Municipality did not exist before. It should also be highlighted that in this edition, the students' parents are also being active participants in all the children's activities,” he noted.
For her part, the Director of Youth, Sabrina Mazariche Parody, added that “the objective of the municipal administration is to strengthen the festival and all the activities proposed by the young people. Thus, we are working on active participation with the entire ECU Commission, the schools, institutions, and the Conased Foundation, which also supports us,” she detailed.
Representing the students, the current leadership of ECU expressed their gratitude for the donation, valuing that it will be of great use for the graduating classes. “This donation is very helpful for the kids; we are very grateful, because the light bulbs are not cheap at all, and they gave us 900 bulbs that we are going to distribute. The lack of material is recurring because the current economic situation is not favorable for the purchase of these materials, especially in the electrical and blacksmithing parts; it is very expensive, so they helped us a lot,” explained Juan Blanco, president of ECU 2023.
“Thanks to the municipality for being present this year and to mayor Enrique Cresto for supporting us so that the students can have their float and their student festival,” said Merlina Percara, vice president of ECU, in the same vein.
Present at the delivery of these items were: mayor Enrique Cresto; Claudia Villalba (First Vice President of the Deliberative Council); Matías Soto (General Secretary of the Mayor's Office); Mariana Chiarello (Secretary of Tourism, Culture and Innovation); María Paz Bonelli (Events Coordinator); Silvana Elgart (Director of Education); Sabrina Mazariche Parody (Director of Youth); Juan Blanco (President of ECU) and members of the student organization's Float Commission.
