Through the 2nd campaign 'Your help is a World', the Jesús del Perdón Cooperative has allocated part of the sale of its wines from Yuntero's Mundo ecological range to this cause. During the almost two months that this initiative has lasted, Bodegas Yuntero has also scheduled three solidarity tastings in order to raise funds for this NGO. With the campaign 'Your help is a World', Yuntero wanted to make its particular contribution to fighting against child poverty.
With the aim of contributing to a more just world and contributing its grain of sand to a social cause as important as child poverty, the Jesús del Perdón-Bodegas Yuntero Cooperative launched a solidarity campaign under the motto 'Your help is a World'. This initiative, which started on November 16 and ended on January 6, has served to raise a total of 5.000 euros for Manos Unidas.
Last Friday, the Jesús del Perdón-Bodegas Yuntero Cooperative presented the check with the money raised to Concepción Martínez García, President and Manuel Navas, Treasurer of the provincial delegation, as well as Isabel Quintanilla, local Coordinator and a group of volunteers from Manzanares . From the NGO, they have expressed their gratitude for this campaign and have remembered the importance of this type of private initiatives, “which help finance the different projects carried out by this entity.”
As already announced at the launch of the campaign, through this collaboration, Manos Unidas will allocate this donation to its Project dand construction of a school in a town in India, where children try to study in unhealthy, dangerous conditions and surrounded by extreme poverty.
The Cooperative has shown its satisfaction with the good development of the campaign, making a very positive balance of both the sale of wines Mundo de Yuntero as well as the reception that each tasting has received. Likewise, they have thanked “the citizens of Manzanares and neighboring towns for their response to our call: Help us to help”, highlighting the supportive nature that its partners and clients always demonstrate.
There have been two actions that have been carried out within the framework of this campaign. On the one hand, with the proceeds from the sale of wines from Yuntero's Mundo organic range; and, on the other, with the celebration of three solidarity tastings, in the months of November and December. The activity, whose cost was allocated entirely to Manos Unidas, also included guided tour through the winery facilities.
