Juarez, Mexico<\/strong><\/h2>

In Juarez, employees got involved in some renovation work at a local elementary school. The Help Day brought together not only NORMA Group employees and the teachers at the school, but also parents whose children attended the school. A group of schoolchildren also took part in the painting work. Volunteers also donated blood to support APANICAL, an association that supports the treatment of children with cancer. The colleagues also collected 71 kilograms of plastic lids, which they donated to the organization. These are recycled and sold to raise money for cancer treatment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
