Christmas day gifts for children in the children’s homes in Mallorca

During December JoyRon Foundation purchased and distributed 484 Sony Wireless Headphones for the children, one for each child in the 38 different identified Children’s Homes in Mallorca. All the headphones were handed out on Christmas Day morning. In addition during November/December for the Migrant Youngsters aged 15 to 18 in some 10 additional homes JoyRon organised together with Samu Foundation a football tournament between the homes on a two league basis with two semi finals and a final. JoyRon funded the football kits for each team plus a Winner’s Cup and Runners Up Cup plus individual medals for the top two teams. Each and every year JoyRon Foundation seeks ways to provide some Joy, Comfort and Support for the Children in Need within the numerous Children’s Homes in Mallorca.

JoyRon Foundation supports a Nautical Training Program developed by Fundacion Cleanwave Education Division.   

The Nautical Training Program provides for 16 young people at risk of social exclusion, with an opportunity for their personal and professional development, through comprehensive nautical basic training, which will allow them to effectively integrate into the labour market and improve their social situation. Such training includes: vessel operation and maintenance, Port and marina management, Maritime logistics and navigation, plus open water safety and rescue. The course consists of 10 x 8 hour onboard boat sessions with both practical and theoretical aspects covered.

JoyRon Foundation has entered into a collaboration agreement with Fundacion Cleanwave for the first of these Nautical Training Programs and has thereby fully funded the total cost of this first ten session course. Selection and recruitment of the first 16 underprivileged 16- to 18-year-olds is taking place during January/February with the first of ten training sessions planned for March. At the end of the program, there will be a final evaluation test to measure the level of competence that each participant has achieved, and thereby determine their eligibility to continue to more advanced training, which would enhance their opportunities for job placement in the nautical business arena.
