4. NO!

5. It’s a country in South America!
Chile

6. We are known for many things:

7. Amazing athletes.

10. Gorgeous landscapes.

13. Nobel Prizes in literature.

14. Nobel Prizes in literature

15. Earthqueakes and natural
disasters.

16. Earthqueakes and natural
disasters

17. Earthqueakes and natural
disasters

18. And many other things…
But there is one thing not many
people know about Chile:

19. What really stands out in Chile
is the solidarity of its people.

20. Take firefighters as an example…

22. Firefighters in Chile are
volunteers, they are willing to
risk their lives for others and
they receive no pay for this.

23. Here is another example: after a
natural disaster, this is the kind
of things you see in the
medias…

26. People from all over the country
gather and try to help those in
need.

27. Also, one of the biggest NGOs in
Latin America, was founded in
Chile by a few college students
to provide emergency housing
for poor families.

29. TECHO has expanded all over
Latin America, with young
volunteers helping poor families
from Mexico to Patagonia.

30. But these are just a few
examples of how chileans help
each other…there are many
more.

31. So if I had to chose one thing as
a cultural heritage and legacy
from Chile it would be the
solidarity of its people.

32. We have won nobel prizes and
sports medals; we have amazing
architecture and great
engineers; lots of cultural
traditions all over the country…
but the one thing that defines
us as a country is being solidary
and helping each other.
