SOCIAL AREA
Fluidra supports the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation which organizes yearly a social awareness action called “Mulla’t”, the objective of which is the public’s social commitment to the 40.000 people that sufres multiple sclerosis in Spain. This action is held each year at roughly 900 pools throughout Spain. Fluidra has been supporting this initiative for several years.
Fluidra also supports Fundació Catalana de l’Esplai, a foundation which aims the achievement of high standards for education for children and young people.
Esplai is a Catalan word meaning educational leisure time. It refers both to an educational concept and to the building where the activity takes place, that is to say, the educational leisure time centre. In addition, an esplai is a non-profit educational organisation, independent from school and family, in which children and youngsters participate freely and learn to play the leading role in their own projects. Fluidra has already installed two swimming pools with state-of-the-art equipment in the “Centre Esplai”.
Fluidra sponsors The Josep Carreras Foundation against leukaemia, a foundation created by the Catalan-born tenor Josep Carreras. The funds administered by this foundation go towards supporting research and grants for research into leukaemia, donor registration, social services and funding for hospitals.
Fluidra also works with Escola Superior de Comerç Internacional (ESCI), college attached to the Pompeu Fabra University, in order to train and promote the training of new professionals in the field of commerce and international business management.
