Migration

He escaped the crisis in Venezuela, arrived in Argentina and today he is a volunteer donor to say thank you

Santos Ferrer, a Venezuelan migrant who fled the crisis in his country, arrived in Neuquén, Argentina, and after overcoming pandemic hardships, now donates blood, platelets, and bone marrow as a way to thank the community that welcomed him.

Santos Ferrer and his family fled Venezuela with four suitcases and three cats, arriving in Neuquén, Argentina.

They migrated due to the crisis in Venezuela and the opportunity of Vaca Muerta.

The pandemic forced them to live in a small apartment and adapt to virtual life.

Santos studied at the Universidad del Comahue and his sisters finished high school in Argentina.
