The EDP Foundation supports Gijón's Cocina Económica (Soup Kitchen) with €4,500 to help vulnerable families

The EDP Foundation has presented a cheque for €4,500 to the Gijón Soup Kitchen (Cocina Económica), to support 45 vulnerable families.Thanks to this contribution, €100 Alimerka food vouchers will be distributed, helping families access essential items at this time of year.

Through initiatives like this, the EDP Foundation reaffirms its commitment to sustainability and solidarity, working to make energy and efficiency accessible to everyone, helping to build a fairer, more caring and sustainable society.

This initiative is part of the EDP Foundation's Christmas Campaign, which also includes initiatives such as the distribution of 2,500 energy efficiency kits to vulnerable families in collaboration with social entities such as the Banco de Alimentos (Food Bank) and Cocinas Económicas (Soup Kitchens) of Asturias and Cantabria. These kits contain practical solutions for reducing electricity, water, and heating consumption, helping to improve household energy efficiency.

In addition, the EDP Foundation has strengthened its commitment to social inclusion and environmental protection through multiple charitable and environmental initiatives, mobilising volunteers across the Iberian Peninsula to generate a positive impact on local communities.
