The ASOLAN and FTL Solidarity Toy Drive aims to ensure that no child is left without a gift at Christmas, promoting values such as solidarity, cooperation, and shared social responsibility. Throughout its fifteen editions, it has mobilized companies, tourism sector workers, and citizens, strengthening the bond between the business community and Lanzarotean society.
This initiative is part of the commitment of both entities to the Sustainable Development Goals, especially SDG 1 (No poverty), SDG 10 (Reduced inequalities), and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the goals), as well as the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which recognizes play as a fundamental right for child development.
From ASOLAN and the Lanzarote Tourism Federation, they have positively valued the outcome of this edition, reaffirming their commitment to continue promoting solidarity actions that contribute to social well-being and support for children and the most vulnerable families
