Monday 18 November 2024, Benefit Voku supporting Colectivo las Abejas

This Voku is brought to you by SKRAPS (Soup Kitchen for Radical Actions and Political Solidarity). On this Monday, we will cook a vegan three-course meal from rescued ingredients and raise money for the "Colectivo las Abejas".

The “Colectivo las Abejas” is a small non-profit organization based in San Cristobal de las Casas which works with agroecology and bioconstructions. Las Abejas works predominantly in local schools, where they organize workshops, and introduce small agroecological systems such as vegetable beds, vermicompost, filters for cleaning grey waters, and gardens with medicinal herbs. In this way, they aim at inspiring children, teachers, and their parents to implement similar systems in their homes, in a context where access to water is scarce (especially to clean water).

Las Abejas works in both private and public schools. The work in public schools is all volunteer based and they lack resources to keep the project going. They need support to be able to organize a set of workshops in a secondary school this year and to create educational material.

If you believe in the need of re-appropriating our food production and in the right for everyone to have access to water, please come and eat a delicious vegan meal to support the project!

Food served from 7pm, no reservation.
