We are devoted also to special topics on Spanish traditions based on Christian culture. We try to recover traditions still alive. For example, we are doing research on a Procesión de las Mortajas’ tradition, a procession where people walk behind the sculpture Nazareno carrying his/herself shroud, as a positive sign of understanding death and resurrection. This is a popular tradition in a Galician city called Pobra do Caramiñal. This spiritual and culture manifestation shows a deep sense of life and death. In this tradition birth, life and death are combined through centuries from primitive times in Dolmens of the surroundings of that city to present times in this Mortajas’ procession. Suffering a life in illness and risk are faced with faith, in a long way of hope and charity, with the only intention of the celebration of Life.

Volunteering is the relational element between public and private organizations and society; in other words, volunteering connects the organization with the society to which the activity of any organization is directed.
NAZARENO OF POBRA AND SHROUD PROCESSION
This is the tradition of the shrouds, from the town where this Foundation is based, surrounding the figure of Jesus of Nazareth. It is a popular tradition that shows us the profound meaning of life and the elements that shape a person’s birth, life, and death.
