Thanks to the collect by the teams at the Chiclayo Airport (Sacyr Concesiones), Jorge Chávez International Airport, Vía de Evitamiento Chimbote, and our administration offices in Lima throughout the first half of 2022, Sacyr has managed to collect 650 kg of bottle and plastic caps destined to the ‘Angelitos de Cristal’ program.
Four different shipments are scheduled this year, with quarterly deliveries for the benefit of this program. Over the first six months, we managed to exceed the planned amount. Our goal for 2022 is to collect 1000 kg.
Our participation in this program supports the Instituto Nacional de Salud del Niño to purchase more bandaids or special bandages to protect from friction, and fortified milk to ensure proper nutrition. The program calls on the community to collect bottle caps to generate more income through recycling these components.
Angelitos de Cristal is an initiative by the Instituto Nacional de Salud del Niño (INSN) focusing on children with Epidermolysis bullosa (EB), to give them the necessary medical, healthcare, social, and psychological attention. This genetic disorder causes the skin to be extremely fragile. It can affect mucous membranes and even light friction or the sole action of eating can cause pain and deep lesions.
