Barça donates 100,000 euros and will raise funds for earthquake victims in Colombia

FC Barcelona and its foundation are mobilizing to aid those affected by a magnitude 7.4 earthquake that struck Colombia. The club has initiated an extraordinary fundraising campaign, starting with a significant contribution of 100,000 euros.

These funds are earmarked to bolster the efforts of humanitarian organizations with whom the Barça Foundation has established collaborations. The aid will focus on providing emergency assistance, ensuring child protection, facilitating access to clean water and food, delivering healthcare, and supporting displaced individuals.

The FC Barcelona Foundation has issued a strong call for solidarity, urging club members, supporters, businesses, and the general public to join this charitable initiative. The club emphasized that all collected funds will be channeled through reputable humanitarian organizations known for their operational capacity and on-the-ground presence, ensuring that donations reach those most in need.

In addition to direct donations, Barcelona has implemented a "solidarity rounding" mechanism at various points of sale within its facilities. This allows individuals purchasing tickets for matches or the museum to make a voluntary contribution by rounding up their purchase amount.

These resources will be used to reinforce the work of humanitarian organizations with which the Barça Foundation maintains a regular collaboration and which are working on the ground offering emergency assistance, child protection, access to drinking water, food, health, education and support for displaced persons.
