María Fernanda Rodríguez, the foundation´s President gave a speech of thanks before the beginning of the show by murga Agarrate Catalina. In her speech she highlighted the importance of the support provided since it allows the Fundación Gonzalo Rodríguez to generate more projects aiming to raise awareness about child road safety and actions to reduce the number of children killed and injured in Uruguay. “Although 2015 was the year with the fewest number of deaths in the last five years, more than 6000 children resulted injured. This is, in fact, a call for action, we are talking about families and children whose lives are dramatically changed as a consequence of something that is preventable," highlighted María Fernanda Rodríguez.

Also, companies annually contributing to the Fundación Gonzalo Rodríguez´s mission were acknowledged. These companies support and commit every action carried out by the organization.

Murga Agarrate Catalina showed its commitment to actions conducted by Fundación through their show called "Un día de Julio” (A Day in July) presented last Tuesday at Sodre´s Auditorium. A very effective staging by the performers captivated the audience.

These fund-raising activities at national and international level are of vital importance to enable the Fundación Gonzalo Rodríguez to continue with its actions to prevent child road injuries or even deaths.

"To share information and implement actions to prevent irreversible damage to children." That is our challenge, to keep finding key stakeholders to take the actions necessary and protect our children," concluded María Fernanda Rodríguez.
