Pedri, player of the Soccer Club Barcelona, has joined forces with the Red Cross to carry out a disaster reduction project with funds raised through two auctions. The first auction is the shirt he showed with the text ‘Fuerza Tenerife’ in support of the island due to the forest fire after scoring a goal on August 20, during the match against Cádiz, and, the second auction, some boots yours football. Both objects will be signed and dedicated by him to each of the people who win each auction.
The auctions can be carried out thanks to the website todocoleccion.net, a company dedicated to intermediation in the purchase and sale of items over the Internet, who also participate jointly in the initiative. People who want to participate can access https://cercadeti.cruzroja.es/PedriJuntoATenerife, where they will find both a direct link to the auctions and the possibility of collaborating, directly, with the project.
The funds raised with this initiative will go directly to promoting a disaster reduction project to be carried out by the Red Cross in the Tenerife islandwith the objective of strengthening community capacities for risk management in the face of natural disasters.
The project will help the island’s population to be able to identify the risks in their environment, analyze them in order to reduce (mitigate) them so that, when a new emergency occurs, they are less affected. In parallel, it will train families on civil protection and how to deal with emergencies.
The Red Cross thanks Pedri for this solidarity initiative and invites everyone to collaborate with the project and participate in one of the auctions in favor of the most vulnerable population in emergencies.
