“CRIT” in Sonora

Maybe this new has nothing to do with class, but it is important to know that a CRIT (Centro de Reabilitacion Infantil Teleton) will be constructed here in Hermosillo at the end of the next year.
It is said that it has never been build a CRIT because the government has refused to donate land to build on. Guillermo Padres announce officially the process to build a CRIT here in Hermosillo. Different from other years, this year just one CRIT will be constructed. The State of Congress approved to support annually with 34.3 millions of pesos this new center. The parties in favor were PAN, PRI, PRD and PVEM.
The last census made in 2000 shows that over 42 thousand people have disabilities in the state of Sonora. This put Sonora in the 15th place nationally in terms of people with disabilities.
The government and Teleton consider of great importance the construction of the new center here in Sonora. A CRIT in Sonora represents hope for children from the northern states of the Republic (Baja California, Baja California Sur, Sonora), since they occupied a large territory.
Imagine how the state will change. We will grow as a city and as a state. Nowadays, Teleton supports 200 kids form Sonora. This people now can have support closer instead of going to other state of the country.
I now that many of you help each year, but this year we have to help more than the other years because now the money is for our state and even more important for our city.
CRIT:-The center will cost 250 million pesos.-The annual contribution by the government will be 34 million pesos.-Teleton’s goal this year is 442 million pesos.-The campaign will begin on November 9 .
