Mafalda I
Mafalda is a comic strip written and drawn by the Argentine cartoonist Joaquín Salvador Lavado (pen name Quino). The strip features a girl named Mafalda (5 years old at the time of the comic's creation)[citation needed] who is deeply concerned about humanity and world peace and rebels against the world as it is. The strip ran from 1964 to 1973 and was very popular in Latin America, Europe and in Asia, leading to two animated cartoon series and a movie.
Who is Mafalda? An approximately six-year-old Argentine girl with a strong political view of the world and a proverbial hate for soup.
In CELEC, we work with Mafalda in our Spanish Courses.

Volunteer Work
4 facts about Volunteer Work*
1. Young People Volunteer More Than Adults
Young people volunteered at twice the rate of adults with 55 percent of young people volunteering, compared with only 29 percent of adults.
2. Volunteering Helps Young People Succeed
Youth who volunteer are less likely to engage in risky behavior, are more likely to feel connected to their communities, and tend to do better in school.
3. Altruism Is the Driving Motivator
Youth who volunteer do so out of altruism, strongly agreeing with statements such as "I would like to help make the world a better place," and "It's important to do things for others." Only 5% of students became involved with volunteering through a school requirement.
4. Adult Role Models Are Crucial
A youth who has a parent who volunteers is nearly three times more likely to volunteer on a regular basis.
CELEC gives you the opportunity to combine community service work while learning and practicing Spanish, as well as immersing yourself in Argentinean culture in the city of Córdoba, Argentina.
In order to develop this program, Celec has become affiliated with various organizations that tackle different aspects of social problems. This way, participants are able to take part in and experience long-term projects that are already underway.

In September, CELEC will be traveling on a Commercial Mission to the State of Mina Gerais, Brazil. The Government of Córdoba planned this mission, to promote Córdoba as one of the best destinations to study Spanish as a Foreign Language and CELEC has been invited to participate.
During those days, conferences on "Why to Study Spanish in Córdoba" will be taking place, and the school’s managers will be visiting schools and meeting Spanish teachers.
