To find our solution, we needed to use our minds and put all our ideas together. First, what we did was to think about our community problem. If our community problem was about some disease problem, we will help cure the disease these people have. Our community problem was the poverty in Peru. We wanted to help these people that didn’t have the money to live, but we also wanted to help people with external and internal diseases. We went to diverse hospitals to see how these people that cure these persons with diseases work. At the end, we decided to use the Hospital of “Arzobispo Loayza.” We chose to work with people that aren’t able to see because they need glasses. These people that go to the hospital go to check if they will need glasses. Once the doctors tell them they do need glasses, they would try to earn money to buy these glasses and be able to see. We donated glasses to these people from “Loayza.” What we did, was to create bins, posters and flyers to put them all around Lima. Because of our posters, people will get informed about our campaign, and they will start to donate glasses.  We mostly put the posters in places that we know someone that will let us paste them there. In other words, we will contact some friend or family member that work in a restaurant or store, so they would give us permission to advertise our project. I think that we have worked very hard to achieve our goal. If we didn’t use all our minds together to find a solution statement, we don’t think that we would be able to help anyone in our CoFo project.
