RIU Hotels & Resorts is fighting against childhood poverty with the goal of preventing children from inheriting inequality. In order to do so, RIU has joined forces with Ayuda en Acci\u00f3n on their \u201cAqu\u00ed tambi\u00e9n\u201d program in the Balearic Islands since 2017, which is currently also being implemented in Madrid.<\/p>\n

This is the fourth year of investment in the Balearic Islands<\/strong><\/h2>\n

RIU continues supporting this program for the fourth consecutive year, which forms part of the \u201cVive el barrio\u201d (Experience your neighbourhood) project.<\/strong> During this past 2019\/20 school year the chain collaborated with school dinner grants for schools in San Gotleu and Nou Llevant. These grants reduced the cost of a school dinner for 90 students in the CEIP I ESO Pintor Joan Mir\u00f3 school canteen at Nou Llevant and improved the running of the school canteen at the CEIP Es Pont in Son Gotleu which had 60 children eating there, thanks to the hiring of an additional monitor.<\/p>\n

– School gardens in the CEIP Es Pont (Son Gotleu) and the Instituto Escuela Pintor Joan Mir\u00f3 (Nuevo Levante), with approximately 96 children taking part.<\/p>\n

– Coordination of extracurricular activities at the Instituto Escuela Pintor Joan Mir\u00f3 (Nuevo Levante), where approximately 100 children take part.<\/p>\n

Once again this year, RIU has wanted to support the work of Ayuda en Acci\u00f3n in the Balearic Islands, which focuses on healthy lifestyle habits for children at risk of social exclusion or those living in poverty.<\/p>\n

\u201cAqu\u00ed tambi\u00e9n\u201d began in Madrid last year<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This program has been rolled out in the capital since 2019 in the Tetu\u00e1n-Ventilla, Latina and Legan\u00e9s neighbourhoods, in schools which have vulnerable students. More specifically, the program works with 9 educational establishments, 8 CEIP (Preschool and Primary), 1 IES (High school) and 2 local organizations. For 2020 the same plan as last year will be carried out.<\/p>\n
