The Peña Barcelonista Villabalter, part of the Federación de Peñas Barcelonistas de Castilla y León, has once again contributed its grain of sand in a new edition of the Solidarity Bingo organised by the San Juan de Cruz Carmelitas Descalzos School, in León. The penya has handed over an official FC Barcelona shirt, a shirt of the supporters’ club itself and also several blaugrana materials to be part of the gifts of this solidarity initiative. A representation of the PB Villabalter formed by its president, Jorge Moreno, the members of the board Recaredo Fernández, Julio Alonso and Fernando Barazón, and the penya member Toni Bragulat, visited the San Juan de la Cruz School to deliver the material. There they were received by Sergio Álvarez, teacher and representative of the school, who thanked them for their collaboration for yet another year.
The PB Villabalter has participated in this charity event since 2004. All the proceeds from the solidarity bingo go to the social and educational project of the Fundación Casa de los Niñ@s ‘Santa Teresita’, located in the canton of Cascales, in Ecuador. Its mission is to provide resources to a home that takes in children in vulnerable situations and at risk of social exclusion. The main objective is to guarantee their education in a family and inclusive environment. These values of solidarity fit perfectly with PB Villabalter, which promotes many initiatives of this type throughout the year, such as its popular Solidarity Christmas.
