ABOUT US
Messengers of Peace (MoP) is a humanitarian organization which aims at fighting poverty and improving the lives of vulnerable people in Argentina.
Messengers of Peace Argentina (MoP) was founded in 2002 by Father Angel Garcia Rodriguez. Our organization was initially created to provide direct support to underprivileged people affected by the Argentinean crisis who were not being helped by existing relief agencies.
Today its mandate and activities have evolved, while its focus on improving the daily lives of the most vulnerable people has been maintained.The projects that we implement in Argentina, range from community centers, soup kitchens, dwelling homes and day care centers for children to residential and day care centers for elderly people.
MoP focuses regularly on poverty-fighting projects in Buenos Aires and Tucuman reaching thousands of people annually.
Mission
Our mission is to improve the living conditions of the most disadvantaged individuals and families in Argentina.
Vision
We seek a country of hope, tolerance and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and people live in dignity and security.
