The Municipality of Concordia, through the Directorate of Citizen Participation and the Department of Senior Citizen Policies, carried out the delivery of sports equipment to the “Stella Maris” Retirees and Pensioners Center.
The materials will be used by the “Pantera Verde” volleyball team, made up of people over 60 years of age. This mixed team, which trains at ACOPAD and the Club Atlético Alumni de Concordia under the direction of coach Verónica Molina, has become an example of integration, health, and enthusiasm within the community.
The delivery was led by the Director of Citizen Participation, José Vedoya, and the head of the Department of Senior Citizen Policies, Gladys Portugal, who highlighted the importance of these initiatives to strengthen the well-being and inclusion of older adults.
Representing the “Stella Maris” Center, the items were received by Sara Fuentes, president of the Center; Sergio Alejandro Mariani, vice president; and Laura Velázquez, treasurer.
The Director of Citizen Participation, José Vedoya, stated: “These actions not only promote physical activity, but also reinforce the sense of belonging and community. The Pantera Verde team is an example of what it means to stay active and engaged, and from the Municipality, we want to continue promoting these types of activities that benefit our older adults so much.”
For her part, the president of the Center, Sara Fuentes, thanked the support provided: “We are very grateful to the Municipality of Concordia for this gesture, which means a lot to us. Volleyball is more than a sport; it is a space for meeting, friendship, and health. Thanks to this support, we can continue to grow as an institution and as a team.”
The Municipality of Concordia reaffirms its commitment to working on the development of inclusive policies that benefit all sectors of society, especially older adults, by fostering activities that promote health, integration, and well-being.
