El objetivo de este grupo es financiar específicamente nuestro Programa de Voluntariado MAYORES MAESTROS, el cual engloba cerca mil voluntarios de avanzada edad que, en base a sus conocimientos, desarrollan un amplio número de actividades que combaten la soledad y previenen la dependencia en los 32 Centros de Mayores públicos de la Comunidad de Madrid. Éstas benefician anualmente a más de 15.000 personas mayores. ¡Mil gracias por ayudarnos a ayudar! +INFO: www.bit.ly/mayoresmaestros

The Aladina Foundation is a Spanish nonprofit that provides comprehensive support to children and teens with cancer—and their families—at 22 public hospitals. Our mission is to improve their quality of life throughout the cancer journey by offering emotional, psychological, and practical support. With your help, we can keep changing lives. Join us in the fight against childhood cancer!

The Aladina Foundation is building the largest pediatric gym ever created inside a Spanish hospital, at Hospital Virgen de la Arrixaca in Murcia. This space will let us fully implement our Physical Exercise Program. Research shows that supervised physical activity improves quality of life and reduces side effects during cancer treatment. The gym will serve all pediatric patients and offer programs for parents and healthcare professionals.

EPICkids is Aladina’s first internationally funded research project—a 5-year study on how the Mediterranean diet and nutrition impact treatment side effects and outcomes in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and certain brain tumors. Led by Columbia University and IARC/WHO, it involves hospitals in Spain, Italy, and Greece. The goal: create evidence-based nutrition guidelines to help improve pediatric cancer care.
