After lunch the team meets up with the families who had lost their houses which we saw yesterday just at the frontline of the disaster.

Four families received their promised appliances thanks to everyone involved!

7 March, feeling accomplished in Algemesi (Valencia).

Last of the appliances were delivered and we also made use of the rented van to move some furniture for someone in need.

All in all a great day for the team thanks again to everyone involved.

7 March, feeling thankful at Cooperativa Copal.

The team was invited to visit the cooperative of Algemesi where all the oranges are processed and gets ready for distribution.

It was a great experience which we would like to thank Eugenio and Vicente for their invitation and Daniel for being our guide informing us of all the process.

8 March, feeling motivated in Algemesí, Spain.

Today the team made more use of the van to deliver more furniture that has been donated to selected families by one of the associations involved in Algemesi.

It has been a great morning for them putting their time for others.

Valencia update

Maroc Atlas is currently on their way back, but unfortunately, the EV foundation was unable to join them as initially planned due to personal reasons. Despite this setback, we had complete faith in Maroc Atlas and their ability to represent us in Valencia with integrity and dedication.

The EV foundation donated £2000, which was raised by the local community. True to our promise, every penny of this donation was utilised effectively.

Maroc Atlas has been actively engaged in purchasing essential appliances and furniture, delivering them personally to those who are most in need. We have been kept informed throughout the process and have witnessed through videos the ongoing devastation in the towns they are assisting. The scenes are still as shocking as when we were physically present in the area.

We extend our gratitude to Maroc Atlas for their representation of our heartfelt work in Valencia.

Karl, Justin, Darren and Alfred, hats off to you all. The EV Foundation and Gibraltar are forever grateful

8 March, feeling grateful and emotional with Karl Valarino and the rest of the team in Algemesí, Spain.

Today we say goodbye to our new family in Algemesi, the team were presented with gifts for the family and a fantastic plaque which will be exposed in our club.

We would like to thank all the neighbours for their great hospitality and appreciation towards our team.

A big hug and thanks to Eugenio and his brother Jose for being there from the beginning and doing a great humanitarian job with everyone in his beloved town of Algemesi.

We would like to mention everyone who has collaborated to make this possible and make a difference for many families who deeply send their appreciation to you all.

It was a great pleasure to be present and feel the appreciation the neighbours had towards Justin & Karl, it was deeply emotional.
