From the Government Team we will always support projects of this type that are full of solidarity and love ”. For his part, the president of the Central-East District Municipal Board, Lorenzo Tom s, has declared that “last year this solidarity event was completed with the realization of a parade that, among other places, visited the Mother Paula Shelter, located in the Barrio de la Merced.

This year, for safety reasons and following the instructions set by the health authorities, it will not be possible to carry out the solidarity parade, but the collaboration with their Majesties is maintained in the purchase of toys for these children that, this year more than ever, they deserve that the Magi remember them for how well they have behaved ”. The objective pursued by the Municipal Board with this campaign is to collaborate with the purchase of toys so that the children of families in need can maintain the illusion in these Christmas days.
