Three Heroes: Elena Durón Miranda

Elena Durón Miranda went to Argentina 11 years ago, and found children as young as three searching for food in landfills. She was heartbroken, she knew she needed to help these poor children and give them a opportunity to learn. thus, she has generated a group called PETISOS, or Prevención y Erradicación del Trabajo Infantil SOS (Prevention and Eradication of Child Labor SOS). Furthermore, without profit, Elena has helped more than 200 children in Argentina and anyone who would like to help can. Elena says that fortunately she was able to help these children and create this program to collect donations and funds for these children. Not only this program helps children, it also helps women's rights and prepare these children for college or university. Elena Durón Miranda is one of the few heroes that is changing the world everyday and providing resources to young children in Argentina.
