This Sunday, Dr. Ana Carolina Puga was at the Saint John the Baptist Parish, taking part, on behalf of Fapuga, in the gift donations for the Saint John’s Auction. The event marks the end of the week dedicated to honoring the parish’s patron saint.
It is a traditional event in the city, full of the festivities of the classic circuit of a small-town June festival (festa junina), with tributes to the saints at masses and ceremonies, a church fair with typical foods, charity bingos and a June square dance (quadrilha junina), with the skirt dance, the ribbon dance and the maypole tradition.
In short, it is a festival that brings together many families from the city and the region during the week dedicated to celebrating Saint John the Baptist’s Day, observed on June 24. To close the festivities, the Saint John’s Auction was held, which Dr. Ana attended.
Dr. Ana was born in Sertãozinho and holds great affection for the city, so being present and being part of the community in actions like this is very important to her and to Fapuga | Nepuga.
The importance of taking part in this Saint John’s Auction
The participation of Dr. Ana Carolina Puga, representing Fapuga | Nepuga, in donating gifts to the Saint John’s Auction highlights the importance of the social actions carried out by institutions in strengthening ties with the community in which they operate.
By being present at a traditional and well-known event in the region, we show our willingness to contribute to the well-being of the people and of the place as a whole.
The institution’s participation in actions like this not only makes it possible to help those who need it most, but also helps strengthen the relationship with the community and build closer ties with potential students, employees and business partners, in addition to reinforcing our identity based on values we share with the community.
