Cooperation of Valente Marques, S.A. in the "Histórias para Pensar" (Stories to Think Over) by Ajudaris, Oliveira de Azeméis

The project "Histórias da Ajudaris" was created in 2009 and is one of the most emblematic projects of Ajudaris. The purpose is to promote reading, writing, art and solidarity. The children who take part, guided by teachers, become real authors of enchanting stories about various subjects, like solidarity, affections, citizenship, environment, values, among others.

Each story has the cooperation of an illustrator who gathers inspiration in the story and brings life and colour to its characters and scenarios. The sale of these articles will put a smile in the face of underprivileged children, youngsters and adults.

Caçarola is very keen to be associated to this project and supports this initiative. As António Valente Marques, CEO of the Company, says: "To develop creativity and the imaginary, stimulate the pleasure of reading, engage young writers, artists and readers, promote citizenship and social inclusion, all of this seems the right path to walk through.  The future depends on the decisions we make today.

A child who reads will be an adult who reasons."

We congratulate Ajudaris. This type of initiatives educates citizens, they become more supportive and assume active roles in the society. CAÇAROLA is therefore most proud to be a partner in this project that makes a difference."
