March 7th, 2009.
This is the first Poetry Gala by the Grupo Inquietudes (Inquiring Group), with the support of the Association of Women in Equality, that in a totally altruistic way acted for the benefit of PAYPE. The event was in the San Vincent Parochial Center on Sarría, a precious modernist theatre with a capacity of 230 people, the council of Sarria-San Gervasi subsized the event, as well as the publicity and diffusion. The poems were read on stage, there were verses from José Angel Buesa, Benito Carrasco, Rafael de León, Antonio Machado, Alvarez Quintero, Garcia Lorca, Angel, Zúñiga, Gregorio Chavarri y Cavestany. The public was awestruck by each poem and the poems were accompanied by people in magnificent costumes. With the venue almost full at 200 people it was a great success due to the quality and generosity on the part of the Grupo Inquietudes. The group is has engaged itself next year, with our new repertoire, to perform the second each. We had the opportunity to spread word of our programs, as well as to reveal the grant given to us by AECID for the remodeling of the network of libraries in Piura. The project consists of various libraries in various phases. The libraries "La Urba", "Los Algarrobos" and Micaela Bastida done by PAYPE, the Tambogrande and La Unión by Fernando Baracco, and the Central of Piura by IMANAY. All the appreciation for the grants given goes to AECID. This network of libraries is part of the director's plan to understand that poverty is a situation of a lack of opportunities, abilities, and options for sustaining a dignified quality of life. This network of libraries made possible by the donation from AECID, come to support the solution to eradicate the lack of education that is in itself poverty.
