When people come together behind a cause, something magical happens. Not only are much-needed funds raised, but those in need feel heard and supported. Such is the case with the story of little Luca, who has IFAP Syndrome, a rare and degenerative disease.
Wishing to raise money to cover the vital research needed to better understand Luca’s condition, the Falla Centro de Denia has organised two initiatives.
The first is a Solidarity Race on Saturday, November 30, coinciding with the 200th anniversary of the National Police Foundation. In collaboration with the Association and the Foundation, the organisers will also be holding a raffle with some exceptional prizes up for grabs, including an official Route 091 t-shirt autographed by tennis players Carlos Alcaraz and Rafa Jordan, stylish sunglasses worth €200, and a Scalextric Circuit Compact CUPRA Racing set guaranteed to provide hours of fun.
The second initiative is the sale of solidarity bracelets for just €3 each
The second initiative enables participants to visibly demonstrate their support by purchasing and wearing a solidarity bracelet printed with the message ‘soylucasindromeIFAP’. Priced at just €3 each, these bracelets can be found in multiple locations throughout Denia, making them easily accessible to the entire community.
In both cases, every cent raised will be donated to the research fund for IFAP Syndrome, with the intention of improving the lives of children like Luca. Anyone wishing to collaborate with the sale of raffle tickets or bracelets can contact Aida Simo at +34 617 999 938.
