Students from the Rural Accommodation School send handmade soaps and other products to those affected by DANA

The students of the Rural Accommodation School of the Local Development Agency (ADL) of Torrelavega have delivered this Thursday to the mayor, Javier López Estrada, a box of handmade soaps made by them to be sent to those affected by DANA, to those who have also sent messages of support.

The councilor, accompanied by the Councilor for Local Development, Jesús Sánchez, and Yolanda López, teacher of the course, thanked the students for their solidarity and confirmed that will deliver this donation to the Torrelavega firefighters who are helping in Valencia so that they can be delivered to those affected by the tragedy. In his opinion, this donation goes beyond the material, because each soap – which is used for the skin and clothes – carries the name and telephone number of one of the students in the course so that the person who receives it can contact if they need any kind of help.

MESSAGE

Each soap carries the following message: ‘Torrelavega with you. We want to offer you our help from T_ALOJA Torrelavega. You can count on us for whatever you need.appearing below the name and telephone number of a student with whom those affected may contact “at any time.”

The young students intend to “contribute everything we can even without having much”. “We want to send them a message of support, try to tell them that even though we are, as in our case, 700 kilometers away, that they see that we are all with them, that they do not feel alone and to send them strength from here,” indicated one of they. Along with the handmade soaps, the students of the Rural Accommodation course have sent gloves, masks, mop replacements, garbage bagsbecause “seeing that they already have food and clothing, we send hygiene and cleaning help.”

Furthermore, from the course directed by Yolanda López, in collaboration with the Councilor for Local Development, they are studying new possibilities of helping those affected by DANA. “Torrelavega continues to show solidarity with the people affected by DANA,” stressed López Estrada, who indicated that from this city they have already left more than 60 tons of food and material for those affected by DANA.
