A gesture of solidarity
with Lorca, Murcia
A group of workers from the FCC Environ-
ment Murcia-Almeria delegation collected
5100 Euros as a gesture of solidarity to help
the earthquake victims in Lorca.
This city has experienced one of the dar-
kest pages of its history and is currently
going through a diffcult period. “With our
help and collaboration, our intention was
for all the families who were affected by this
disaster go back to their normal lives as
soon as possible and put this experience
behind”.
The volunteer efforts of these colleagues
refect the philanthropic qualities of these
people who have collaborated in order to
mitigate the extreme necessities in Lorca by
contributing money from their own salaries.
These employees work in the following de-
partments: the department that provides
waste collection and cleaning services to
the City Council of Níjar, Almería; the waste
collection and garden maintenance servi-
ces in Alhama de Murcia; the department
in charge of cleaning Repsol facilities; the
department in charge of parks and gar-
dens, municipal buildings, waste collection,
street cleaning and wastewater treatment
facilities in Cartagena; the urban waste co-
llection services in San Javier, Murcia; and,
the department responsible for cleaning the
premises of the Almería City Council.
This sum was given to the city of Lorca,
donating it to the Mesa de la Solidaridad,
the organization founded to channel and
manage all donations received to mitigate
the effects of the earthquake. Various other
charities have made donations to this fund,
including Caritas and the Red Cross, the
city council, and several foreign consulates.
