La asociación AMA, con la ayuda de nuestros usuarios Dayana, Federico y Lilimar, han realizado una actividad de creación de máscaras y antifaces con los niños de los usuarios.
¡Han pasado una tarde muy divertida!
We were honoured to be invited by the @FEST 2022 committee to take care of the catering for their festival.
It certainly was a busy weekend, but we were delighted to be able to participate and soak up the wonderful atmosphere at this great English-theatre festival, with its fantastic actors and organisers.
Given the current drastic situation, many of our users with temporary or precarious contracts are at danger of having their contracts terminated or not having them renewed. Their income will suffer greatly and they will be unable to meet their expenses. The registered not-for-profit Associación Manos Abiertas, asbl (A.M.A) is launching an urgent appeal to help the most vulnerable make ends meet. We would like to help them pay part of their rent, utility bills and everyday groceries and we are now appealing to the general public to help us by putting aside the money you might have spent on a coffee, a glass of wine, a cinema ticket, meal out, or even that little getaway you were unable to take, and transfer that amount to AMA’s account.
Also encourage your children and friends to be supportive. Any amount, however small, is a BIG help.
We can’t save lives like health care workers do but we can help ease the burden on the life of someone who has been economically impacted by this situation. And you can rest assured that, despite being isolated in your lockdown, you are helping in a BIG way.
Solidarity is our greatest reward and it’s the only possible way to make our way through the crisis that is affecting all of us in some way or another.
We estimate that 5000 euros would make a HUGE difference to the lives of so many. They need us! Please help. Thank you!
The 36th Migrations Festival was held on 1, 2 and 3 March 2019 – three days in which to meet friends, have some fun, and enjoy good music, dance, crafts and food.
Throughout the entire weekend the AMA stand sold local delicacies from Spain, Chile and Peru, to name but a few.
The festival is a great opportunity to advertise our activities and raise money to fund them
The second Fiesta Española organised by the FAEL was a great success. Congratulations to all those who participated. Many people visited our AMA stand to find out more about what we do. The Ambassador also paid us a visit and Victoria and our users explained our work to him.
The Court of Auditors invited us to participate at its Christmas market. This gave us the opportunity to raise awareness of our work as well as raise money by selling food and crafts.Thank you to everyone who worked at the stand and who visited the stand.

On 14 September, AMA was one of the 48 Luxembourg associations that participated in the PwC staff Day.
This gave us the opportunity to explain our project to PwC employees, to present our latest achievements and to share our experiences. There was even time to organise a Sevillanas workshop with the help of Victoria Villalba and Laura Supervielle.
It was fun … and useful: We recieved generous donations from the staff!
Our deep thanks to PwC for their support to our small association.
