Asociación Manos Abiertas
We were honoured to be invited by the @FEST 2022 committee to take care of the catering for their festival.
It certainly was a busy weekend, but we were delighted to be able to participate and soak up the wonderful atmosphere at this great English-theatre festival, with its fantastic actors and organisers.
We hope to see you at the next FEST! FEST2022
The 36th Migrations Festival was held on 1, 2 and 3 March 2019 – three days in which to meet friends, have some fun, and enjoy good music, dance, crafts and food.
Throughout the entire weekend the AMA stand sold local delicacies from Spain, Chile and Peru, to name but a few.
The festival is a great opportunity to advertise our activities and raise money to fund them
The second Fiesta Española organised by the FAEL was a great success. Congratulations to all those who participated. Many people visited our AMA stand to find out more about what we do. The Ambassador also paid us a visit and Victoria and our users explained our work to him.

PwC Staff Day 2018 – Make a difference
On 14 September, AMA was one of the 48 Luxembourg associations that participated in the PwC staff Day.
This gave us the opportunity to explain our project to PwC employees, to present our latest achievements and to share our experiences. There was even time to organise a Sevillanas workshop with the help of Victoria Villalba and Laura Supervielle.
It was fun … and useful: We recieved generous donations from the staff!
Our deep thanks to PwC for their support to our small association.
Saturday 27th January 2018, from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm, Asociación Manos Abiertas (AMA) will be at the LUSH shop at 60 Grand Rue Luxembourg. You can meet us there to hear about our association and also to purchase the Charity Pot cream.
LUSH will donate all that day’s sales of the Charity Pot Cream to AMA, VAT excluded. (https://fr.lush.com/products/charity-pot).
Therefore this cream will not only be beneficial to your body and your hands. It will also represent an income for AMA that will be used for our projects aimed at the integration of the newly arrived to Luxembourg..
You can buy the Charity Pot in two sizes:
Please come to the shop to talk to us and to buy a cream that is good for you and means revenue for AMA.
This year AMA participates for the first time on the ING Solidarity Awards.
