Solidarity campaigns at the SPTO

November and December are dark and cold, but they are also a prelude to Christmas. At the SPTO, we want to brighten these moments for those most disadvantaged, and for this reason, we have carried out two solidarity campaigns: the 18th Operation Kilo, and the toy collection campaign.

The SPTO created, in December 2012, the “SPTO Food Bank" organizing a first Kilo Operation to collect non-perishable food that was delivered to the Madrid Food Bank.

Since then, SPTO employees have continued to collaborate with the food bank in campaigns that have been organized at least twice a year. The Fundación Banco de Alimentos de Madrid has the sole purpose of obtaining free food and its subsequent distribution among charities.

The SPTO toy collection campaign has been carried out since 2016 in collaboration with the solidarity association "No Child without a Smile". This association's objective is to collect new or used toys for donation to families that are in a situation of social exclusion.

«No Child Without a Smile» organizes, at Christmas, the Festival of Illusion, an initiative that was born in 2009 and whose purpose is to ensure that the illusion of Christmas is present in the homes of those who need it most and who, due to their economic situation, they cannot make their children enjoy Christmas like any other child. This initiative distributes toys to 0 to 12 years old children from families at risk of social exclusion.
