employees
collaborate in
solidarity recycling
Operarios de la limpieza viaria de
Street cleaners in Melilla and other
colleagues from the offices at Federi-
co Salmón in Madrid are collaborating
in two solidarity recycling campaigns
which objective is to help two girls, Ai-
tana and Sara, who are both suffering
from serious health problems.
The goal of these two solidarity cam-
paigns is to collect as many plastic
caps as possible and then send them
to the families of these girls who are
obtaining, thanks to this initiative,
the funding necessary for medical
treatment and research.
So far, our colleagues in Melilla and
Madrid have collected 155,000 caps
which they sent to Aitana through the
Enrique Soler School in Melilla and to
Sara through the Giner de los Ríos
School in Torrejón de Ardoz (Madrid).

Concha López, the general director of
PLAN, said that the framework agreement
between both organizations stands out for
its inclusive and educational character: “our
objective is to achieve the full development
of all girls and boys in their societies and, to
achieve this, education and the direct invol-
vement of minors is essential for safeguar-
ding rights. These are values that we share
with FCC’s Corporate Social Responsibility
policy”.
For José Manuel Velasco, general manager
of FCC’s Communication and Corporate
Responsibility, “the agreement with PLAN
Spain, the entity with which we rebuilt a
school in Haiti, is in keeping with our social
responsibility vision of being close to and
collaborating with reference non-govern-
mental organizations”.
