The designer Silvia Navarro May is the featured month in the calendar of ASSIDO , a charity calendar that champions the decision-making power of people with intellectual disabilities under the title 'I am unique and capable! I decide!'. This is a clear statement of intent in the slogan that appears on the cover of ASSIDO 's 2024 charity calendar and will be the leitmotif that accompanies the association's activities throughout the year.
The photo shoot with the designer Silvia Navarro The event took place at the Murcia store, located very close to the popular Romea Theatre, and was attended by two models from the association, María José and baby Loreto. Both had the opportunity to spend a fun afternoon among dresses and accessories, accompanied by the store staff.
This calendar was created to encourage us to reflect, month by month, on the role of people with Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities in society. While the association's message in 2023 was that we must accept the fact that everyone is different, in 2024 the focus will be on the fact that we are all unique and capable, and that we have the power to decide what to do with our lives.
The proceeds from the charity calendar will go towards different projects of the association during 2024. Those interested in obtaining the charity calendar can do so at the ASSIDO centers in Plaza Bohemia and Casillas, at the stationery store of El Corte Inglés on Gran Vía in Murcia or through the more than 500 families of the association.

The calendar is funded by the Gmp Foundation and the photographs that illustrate it were taken by Rubén Juan Serna, a well-known regional photographer.
