Earthquake and Tsunami in Chile 2010 • The most affected places by the earthquake were the center of my country (Valparaíso-Santiago) and the south (Concepción-Dichato). • After this, came a devastating tsunami , where the number of dead was 525 and 25 missing people.
Time of Fast Project • So, That's why, I want to tell you about TOF project, that we did after the earthquake in the fishing town Dichato. • Helping poor children who suffered the destruction of their only school in the town.
TOF Program • This TOF program, funded by the YS Men International and conducted by the YMCA from Concepción, Chile managed to teach 250 children to swim at Dichato school, Today they can face the sea again without panic caused by the tsunami years ago.
Dichato New School • The TOF Program for 250 children was a success. • The Y's Men and the YMCA held a community outreach. • An action unreleased in the world.
