Spanish Red Cross of Totana will celebrate Banderita Day on December 8, coinciding with the celebration of the pilgrimage of Santa Eulalia, Patroness of this town, in order to raise funds for the maintenance of the programs promoted by this NGO in this municipality and, above all, those aimed at Children.

The Councilor for Social Welfare, Javier Baños, the president of the Spanish Red Cross in Totana, Pedro Avellaneda, the head of Red Cross Fundraising, Elena García Espejo, have presented this initiative that will allow a public cost in favor of the Red Cross Spanish.

Also present at the event were the representatives of the volunteer entities that will collaborate in this campaign, in this case, the president of the Totana Basketball Club, David Cánovas, and the president of the Housewives Association of the Three Hail Marys, Julia of the Peña.

The Spanish Red Cross will install during the morning of December 8, a holiday that brings together many neighbors in the street to wait in El Rulo for the Patroness of Totana, a total of three petitioning tables: Constitution Square, Don José María Street (next to "Chamones" bar) and during the journey down the pilgrimage (next to the restaurant "Venta La Rata").

More than 25 volunteers from the Basketball Club, the Association of Housewives and Red Cross will be installed in these busiest areas of the city with the aim of raising money in favor of the Red Cross by putting a square paper sticker on the flap from donors.

This action has been carried out in Totana on this day for about a hundred years;

and with her it is tried to maintain the programs of accompaniment, school support and employment and others of aid to the Childhood that this organization is developing in this municipality.

The promoters encouraged citizens to collaborate on this cost because, they said, "with their contribution a good end is achieved, such as looking for the smiles of children."
