During the first Yachting Gives Back food-raising campaign for those in need in Mallorca we collected over 650kg of foodstuffs and personal hygiene products. All of this has now been distributed to the registered charities we support namely, Fundación Shambhala, Associació Tardor, Mallorca Sense Fam and JoyRon Foundation.
We want to thank all those yachts and service companies who donated so generously and especially those at the top of our “leader board”:
S.Y. Juliet for donating an incredible 8 boxes.
Cristina Ortiz and Pendennis Palma for 5 boxes.
Captain James Puckle and the crew of SY Mikado for 4 boxes
Lynn, Tane and the rest of the crew of MY Tatasu for 4 boxes
We have also been given many other items (towels, pillows, clothing, galley equipment etc.) which have been extremely useful either directly for the charities themselves or to be exchanged for food.
Our second campaign will start in September as many of the yachts said that they would have an “end of season clear out” and then we will complete our first year with a December campaign because, let’s face it, most of us have far more stuff than we really need at Christmas!
We will deliver empty boxes anywhere and collect them from you when they are ready. Or you can collect them from the Pinmar Supply shops in Cami Escollera or inside STP.
Please support us if you can. If you would like help please Contact Nick Entwisle
