IDEAS
Serving society should be an important part of each of human beings but we still don't
all do it, this is not the case of this our superhero Mauricio Bernal a man committed to
the well-being of his community, at the age of his 17 years he came to this
neighborhood being just a teenager and finishing high school by then despite being an
isolated ward did not pose the danger it now is, he grew and as the years passed he
began to feel in his heart the desire to find a way to improve many shortcomings that
he began to identify, Mauritius initiated participation in all the meetings they did in
the communal hall, and improve many shortcomings he identified, Over the years
Mauritius befriended and allied the community spoke to older adults and realized that
many of them had no food or sustenance to survive, as well as watching teenagers
give their hints in the drug addiction and vandalism, over the years Mauritius helped
some people but failed to do it as he wanted, living there he met the one who is his
wife today and gave him a small son, so the growth and environment where his son
would live was the trigger reason for taking over this community, it was there that he
ran to be the representative of the board of communal action and there he began his
work in a more committed way, being the community leader began to make alliances
with entities such as firefighters, national police, some universities, at the moment a
work plan was started which would get resources to improve negative aspects and turn
them into pleasant spaces for all its inhabitants since then every afternoon he does
didactic meetings with the grandparents, spaces where they share and they learn
different kinds of information, their commitment is to be able to feed people who
often go to bed if they can eat food, Mauricio does its best to get financial resources
but when he fails to do it the beauty of his job is that he does so with his own
resources putting the well-being of his community above personal tastes for him,
children and adolescents offers educational activities to try to rescue them that do not
fall into the vices.
