Rafael Nadal and his foundation to donate 3000 kg of food to the affected families
Rafael Nadal’s generosity has been well-documented in recent years. Whenever a problem befalls his people, the Mallorcan is often the first to step out in assistance.
In 2018, Rafael Nadal housed the Mallorca flood victims, while this year saw him join hands with Pau Gasol to raise almost 15 million for his compatriots who were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Now the World No. 2, along with his foundation and the Rafa Nadal Academy, have pledged their support to the Food Bank of Mallorca in order to deal with the current food crisis in the region.
It has been reported that the Rafa Nadal Foundation aims to donate around 3,000 kg of food to the affected families in Mallorca. That would greatly benefit the Food Bank of Mallorca, which already supports roughly 25,000 people - a figure that has seen a drastic rise since the pandemic set in.
Rafael Nadal’s wife - Maria Francisca ‘Xisca’ Perello - acknowledged the charitable efforts carried out by the organization. As the director of the Rafa Nadal Foundation, she expressed her happiness at being able to help the needy in such testing times.
Raimundo de Montis, the president of the Food Bank of Mallorca, lauded Rafael Nadal for his generosity during the global crisis.
