A new town and a new life in Curarrehue - Dec.08 |
65 families from the district of Curarrehue, in the mountain area of the Region of Araucanía were handed over their final homes 3 years after joining the Estero Pulongo. Committee. In the official ceremony, which took place on December 19, and was lead by Cristina Silva, National Overseer of the Housing Solidarity Fund, and José Luis Sepúlveda, Director of SERVIU (Housing and Urban Development Service), they were handed the keys of their houses and received them with overwhelming emotion. The community members then proceeded to have a countryside lunch and that same night, they started their new life in Entre Cerros, as the town was named. During 3 years, the beneficiaries of the Subsidy provided by the Housing Solidarity Fund were grouped together in the Estero Pulongo committee, which was created after some of the community members were affected by the landslide that occurred on May 28, 2005. RedAlmarza was the Social Housing Management Institution (in Spanish, EGIS) chosen by the group to execute the project. This is the first town the company has built in the region. |
