Overview
- Asturias raised €10.94 million for social projects in 2024 through the solidarity tax box, marking a nearly €800,000 increase from the previous year.
- Over 51% of Asturian taxpayers marked the solidarity box last year, but 276,493 people still leave it unchecked, representing untapped funding potential.
- On May 7, 2025, coordinated rallies were held in Gijón, Oviedo, Avilés, and four other cities to encourage participation during the current tax declaration period.
- Campaign leaders estimate that full participation could generate an additional €7–8 million for nonprofit initiatives aiding the region's most vulnerable populations.
- The solidarity box allows taxpayers to allocate 0.7% of their tax liability to social projects at no extra cost, with officials emphasizing the significant impact of this simple gesture.
