Around 150 freshman students from the Catholic University of Porto participated in a volunteering action at Associação Norte Vida, a social support institution in Porto.
The students dedicated themselves to various space intervention tasks, including painting, cleaning and gardening, with the aim of transforming and improving the association's facilities.
At Associação Norte Vida, 17 people live, the vast majority of whom face drug addiction problems. The institution provides support and follow-up to these users.
This volunteering activity is part of the integration of new students at the university, providing them with practical experience of social impact in the local community.
