Rafa Nadal and his wife strengthen their bond with an important step that surprises their followers and close circle

The story of Rafa Nadal and Xisca Perelló goes beyond sports and discretion. Married since 2019 and parents of a son, they form one of the strongest and most admired couples on the national scene. Always staying away from the media spotlight, they have built a life based on trust, mutual respect, and a constant commitment to causes they consider essential.

This shared commitment is also reflected in their joint projects. Both have chosen initiatives that aim to make a difference, especially in the educational and social fields. Through the foundation that bears the tennis player's name, their involvement as a married couple goes beyond the family sphere and leaves a mark on many communities.

Rafa Nadal has already made the announcement

The Rafa Nadal Foundation has announced a new collaboration that will enrich their centers in Palma, Valencia, and Madrid. It is an alliance with the Silbon Foundation to introduce environmental education content into their children's summer programs. This initiative aims for the youngest children to develop a more responsible awareness from an early age.

During the 2025 summer session, children who attend these centers will be able to participate in activities related to recycling, biodiversity, or caring for the planet. The proposal combines practical learning with games, workshops, and shared experiences, always adapted to their age. The goal is to shape a more conscious and sustainable childhood.

This approach aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals and adds value to the work that has already been carried out in these spaces. Environmental education becomes a cross-cutting axis that is added to sports and personal development as essential pillars of the foundation.

Values that inspire on and off the court

Rafa Nadal has shown throughout his career that success is not measured only by trophies. His involvement in social causes, especially those related to children, has been constant. Sports gave him a platform and he has known how to use it to generate a positive and lasting impact on the lives of many young people.

This type of project also reflects the tennis player's vision of the athlete's role in society. It is not only about competing, but about leading by example. If there is something that has always characterized Nadal, it is precisely his ability to inspire with concrete actions, beyond words.

The foundation, created in 2008, has grown in the number of beneficiaries and in the diversity of activities. Each new step, such as this recent collaboration, reinforces a model based on effort, respect, and cooperation. These are values that Rafa applies both on the court and in his personal life.

Xisca Perelló, fully involved in the new project

Although her public profile is discreet, Xisca Perelló plays an essential role in the daily operation of the Rafa Nadal Foundation. As the general director of the entity, she has been key in the design and development of this new alliance with the Silbon Foundation. Her personal involvement has been decisive for the initiative to take shape and reach hundreds of minors.

This new step also symbolizes an evolution in the couple's joint work. Rafa and Xisca not only share life and family, but also a mission. The combination of their talents and their commitment is behind many of the foundation's achievements.

Thus, the news not only confirms a new institutional collaboration, but also the essential role that Xisca, Nadal's wife, plays in the expansion of the tennis player's project.
