The solidarity auction #SavemValencia has auctioned t-shirts and items related to the world of collecting for the amount of 26,523 euros that, in what is Bank Sabadell (according to its promise to double the amounts received when the Generalitat opened the account), shoots above the 53,000 euro of the collection that will go entirely to the account for the victims of DANA in Valencia. This Thursday the last lots will be closed, which may go up quite a bit more.
Three days of closing 95 many among the outstanding ones are 3,175 euros who bid for the shirt Leo Messi (given by collector Carles Díaz), the 1,850 for Vicente Rodríguez’s shirt he wore in the centenary of the VCF legends match (given by the player himself), the 1,240 paid for Carlos Soler’s shirt in the semi-final Cup of 19 or the 1,000 that Valencian presenter Arturo Valls paid for David Villa’s replica of the 2010 World Cup final and the forward himself surrendered to the solidarity initiative.
The #SalvemValencia auction counts as sponsors the number of Arturo Valls and the world football legend Mario Alberto Kempes. Bids are made on the Golsolidari.com portal and can be followed live on the Serantesweb channel. The #SalvemValencia initiative promoted by journalist Carlos Serantes (@SerantesO) together with collectors Albert Carda (@valenciamemora), Daniel Peiró (@Grichoner) and Óscar Pérez (@oscarperezgar) in collaboration with the world of collecting is managed to gather pieces of footballers the size of Sergio Ramos, Take Kubo, Pedro Chirivella, Martín Montoya, Dibu Martínez, Pau Torres, Vicente, Cañizares, Muniaín, Carboni or what Sevilla player Isaac wore on the last day of the league last weekend was present in solidarity fighting to “remove the mud” caused by Dana de Valencia on October 29.
Purpose of Solidarity is a solidarity NGO that always makes bids with the aim of working together for the good of society. The visible face of this non-profit association is the three former players like Ildefonso Lima, Juli Sánchez or Javier Saviola himself.
Golsolidari will deposit the amount collected in the Banco Sabadell account with the number ES94 0081 0693 61 0002423445 enabled by the Generalitat Valenciana as the main channel to collect donations, both from individuals and entities or companies. Furthermore, as Serantes said, “the bank promises to contribute double what is given. So if a bidder buys a shirt for 100 euros, the bank will contribute another 100.”
