A large team of employees from the NAI plants in Hermosillo volunteered to help with gardening, painting, and cleaning one of the houses operated by this shelter for children and adolescents who are abandoned, mistreated, or victims of domestic violence or sexual abuse.

Saltillo, Mexico
Beneficiary: Elderly shelter home “Asilo El Buen Samaritano”.
Activity: Electrical repair & maintenance
The team at Saltillo primarily worked in the main gathering area of the elderly residents at this facility to repair faulty electrical service, including fixing lighting issues. Most of the lights were burned out, representing a critical fall risk for the residents in the dark environment. These were replaced with LED lamps, which provided the needed light source as well as energy savings. In addition, the team replaced new electrical contacts and switches in the facility that were defective. Finally, they also collected and donated various supplies to the home, such as lactose-free milk, canned goods, and detergent. The Asylum of the Good Samaritan focuses on the care and attention of older adults in a situation of abandonment, extreme and moderate poverty; the staff of caregivers attends to daily activities of hygiene, food, clothing, and attention.
