The Royal Household has made an announcement that has caused great anticipation among monarchy followers. It has already given the green light to the official agenda for the Royal Family for next week and among the many confirmed engagements, there is one that has sparked particular interest. Queen Letizia has been chosen to preside over a very significant event and it will happen very soon: next Monday, June 9.
Doña Letizia has confirmed her presence at the closing ceremony of the 17th edition of the annual "Euros de tu nómina" call. This charitable initiative is promoted by Banco Santander. Its goal has been to support social projects that work to improve the lives of many people in Spain.
The event has been very well received by the public because it is an occasion with a strong charitable component. In this edition, €655,012 ($655,012) have been raised and all that money has come from the "Euros de tu Nómina" fund, financed thanks to donations from Banco Santander employees. The bank has also matched the amount raised by its employees, thus doubling the program's impact.
The royal household has shown Letizia's commitment to social causes
Since this initiative was launched, €6.7 million ($6.7 million) have already been distributed. They have benefited 170 NGO projects throughout Spain. Nearly 658,000 people have been directly helped by these actions.
Queen Letizia has always shown a strong commitment to social causes. That's why her participation in this event has been met with enthusiasm.
The ceremony will also recognize the work of more than 45 NGOs. All of them have collaborated with Grupo Santander in Valencia in recent months. Their work has been essential in helping populations affected by the DANA.
The royal household confirms it will be one of Doña Letizia's most important events
In addition, as happened in the previous edition, three winning projects from the Santander Ayuda Call will be awarded. These projects are focused on fighting child and youth poverty in Spain. They have also supported educational initiatives that have made a difference.
The Royal Household has emphasized the importance of this event. Queen Letizia has played a prominent role in it.
Without a doubt, it will be one of the most significant moments of her official agenda for the week. It has already been celebrated as a key event by followers of the Crown.
