The Response from the Carlos Tévez Foundation

Through a testimony given to journalist Juan Etchegoyen for Mitre Live, Silvia Tallarico, director of the Carlos Tévez Foundation, expressed her discomfort with the actress's comments. "I felt a lot of helplessness with Florencia Peña's remarks," Tallarico expressed, highlighting that the invitation for Peña to visit the foundation's headquarters was open, so she could see firsthand the actions carried out there.

"They started sending me audios and videos of the lady whom we invited to come here where we have the foundation's headquarters. Honestly, I felt a bit of indignation at her lack of knowledge," Tallarico added, referring to Peña's criticisms of the foundation's activities.

Silvia Tallarico made it clear that values, sports, and education are the three essential pillars of the Carlos Tévez Foundation. Additionally, she highlighted the importance of making visible what often remains hidden. "There are people who help in silence," she emphasized, while mentioning one of the foundation's current activities: the distribution of school supplies to children in need.

This response reinforces the Foundation's commitment to the community and highlights that Carlos Tévez's and his team's charitable actions are not always recognized, but they continue to be essential for many children who depend on these initiatives.
