Our Origins
For over 35 years we have been private entrepreneurs, with specialization in marketing and commercialization of products and services at national and international level.

    Be as efficients and diligents as the best entrepreneurs, to be as effective and successful as them but in the social field.
  2. BEING GOOD GROUND TO PLANT 
    Give good crops with the seeds of those who trust in our work.
  3. BEING SOCIAL WITHOUT BEING POOR
    We work, we produce and prosper for the general welfare, for the most vulnerable and needy, non-profit and without spirit of poverty

Our Reason for Being
​Our reason for being and doing is based on the deep desire to love the presence of God in all human beings and to fulfill his command to love one another as brothers.
