HELP Murcia Mar Menor has donated €4,000 to Aidemar in San Javier to support the organisation’s work helping people with disabilities develop new skills, gain independence and prepare for employment. Representatives from HELP visited Aidemar’s centre, where they were welcomed by the organisation’s president, Paco Garcia, and members of its management team. The visit also included a tour of Aidemar’s brand-new training centre, where the donation was presented.
New training centre supports independence and employment in the Mar Menor area
The new facility provides a dedicated space where students can learn skills and receive guidance as they work towards independence and potential employment opportunities. The bright and spacious centre includes offices, classrooms and a kitchen, providing different environments for learning and developing everyday skills.
HELP Murcia Mar Menor representatives said they hoped their €4,000 contribution would help Aidemar continue developing the centre and expanding the support available to its students. The visit also gave the charity an opportunity to see how its contribution could make a difference to people in the local community first-hand.
Handmade gifts celebrate partnership between local charities
Additionally, during the visit, HELP representatives were presented with two handmade ceramic gifts created by Aidemar’s team in San Pedro del Pinatar. The charity praised the work and talent behind the pieces and said it hoped to arrange another visit to see the team at work.
San Javier café welcomes HELP fundraising collection tin: Charities collaborate for the community
This is not the only time the charities have networked: Aidemar has recently opened a café in San Javier and agreed to host one of HELP’s collection tins. The arrangement will provide another opportunity for people to contribute to the charity’s fundraising activities while visiting the café.
Aidemar continues supporting 1,000 people and their families
Aidemar has been supporting people with disabilities and their families for 44 years. The organisation currently provides assistance to around 1,000 people and their relatives on the Costa Calida, helping them access opportunities, develop their abilities and improve their quality of life. HELP Murcia Mar Menor also helps people in need across the Region of Murcia, primarily by providing equipment for mobility including walking sticks and mobility scooters.
“We’re proud to support an organisation doing such important work in our local community,” stated HELP Murcia Mar Menor in a post about the donation. “A huge thank you to Aidemar for the warm welcome, the lovely gifts and the opportunity to see first-hand the difference they are making.”
This generous donation represents another example of local organisations working together to improve opportunities and provide practical support for people and families across the Mar Menor area.
