- Ferrovial has set up 25 water and sanitation projects in impoverished communities in Africa and Latin America in the eleven years the program has been in existence.
- In Spain, the company will upgrade meal centers and food stores for the Altius Francisco de Vitoria foundation.
- The projects amount to a total investment of €550,000.
Around 10,000 people will see their living conditions improve significantly as a result of the water and sanitation projects to be developed by Ferrovial with the help of various NGOs in Africa and Latin America. In addition to the monetary contribution, Ferrovial employees will volunteer their time to provide technical support throughout the various stages of the project. Ferrovial and the NGOs chosen in the 2018 funding round have signed the co-operation agreements for the projects under both the “Social Infrastructure” and “Social Action in Spain” programs. Rafael de Pino, Chairman of Ferrovial, and Íñigo Meirás, CEO of Ferrovial, took part in the event, alongside José Luis Leal, Chairman of Acción contra el Hambre; Jaime Montalvo, Chairman of Ayuda en Acción; Benjamín Aparicio, Chairman of World Vision; and José Ignacio Caballero, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Altius foundation.
