Overview
- The nationwide two-day drive will coordinate the Banco de Alimentos network’s 54 local centers across Spain.
- In Cantabria, the target is 100,000 kilos of food and €100,000, up from 85,000 of each last year, to support about 9,000 people for roughly four months.
- Álava’s effort will be present at 72 supermarkets in Vitoria-Gasteiz and 18 in the rest of the province during the collection weekend.
- Álava president Daniel Muñoz cites a 30% drop in beneficiaries since 2023 alongside sharply higher shopping-basket prices, triggering a public SOS for support.
- In Bizkaia, organizers are seeking around 5,000 volunteers to cover more than 200 participating supermarkets.
