The Real Madrid Foundation and Convivencia Sin Violencia reaffirm their alliance for a school in Mexico
This agreement strengthens the commitment of both entities to the comprehensive development of children and youth in vulnerable situations, through sports and the promotion of values.
The Real Madrid Foundation and Convivencia Sin Violencia have reaffirmed their collaboration agreement to strengthen the development of a social sports school in the municipality of Tepeji del Río, in the state of Hidalgo (Mexico). This alliance is aimed at providing comprehensive care for children and young people in situations of vulnerability.
The ratification event was held at Ciudad Real Madrid and featured the participation of Joaquín Quintana Pérez, president of Convivencia Sin Violencia; Enrique Sánchez, executive vice president of the Real Madrid Foundation; Emilio Butragueño, director of Institutional Relations of Real Madrid; and Julio González Ronco, managing director of the Foundation.
During the meeting, the value of this collaboration was highlighted as an initiative that reflects the shared commitment of both institutions to education in values, social inclusion, and the creation of opportunities for children and youth.
More than 4,800 beneficiaries in Mexico
Outside of Spain, Mexico is the country where the Foundation develops the largest number of social sports projects. Currently, the Foundation has 56 social sports schools in nine states across the country (Chihuahua, Michoacán, Campeche, Hidalgo, Yucatán, Oaxaca, Mexico City, State of Mexico, and Chiapas), benefiting more than 4,800 children and young people. The incorporation and consolidation of the project in the state of Hidalgo represents a significant step in expanding the Foundation's social sports activities in Mexico, in partnership with an organization with a solid track record in violence prevention and strengthening the social fabric.
A project for integration
Based in Tepeji del Río, Convivencia Sin Violencia works towards the integral development of children and young people in situations of social and economic vulnerability. Their intervention is carried out through the Tierra de Sueños Community Center, from which they promote programs in the fields of health, education, culture, and sports, aiming to improve the quality of life of the community and prevent issues such as violence, addictions, and crime.
Among its main lines of action is a nutrition program that provides a daily meal to children and the elderly. Additionally, in collaboration with the Faculty of Medicine of the Universidad Panamericana, it develops a health program that conducts annual medical consultations, complemented by prevention and health education actions. The center also features a digital library equipped with computers, internet access, and a variety of free courses and certifications.
