The Amancio Ortega Foundation and Cáritas Española launch the “one House, one Home” initiative, aimed at alleviating the problems of social exclusion caused by access to housing for the most vulnerable families.
Within the framework of this agreement, which will be valid for 24 months, the Foundation will contribute 15 million euros that will improve the situation of some 15,000 people, especially affected by difficulties in accessing housing, caused by the current situation of the markets and high energy prices.
Housing, the second factor of greatest social exclusion
In recent years, difficulties in accessing the right to housing have become, after the lack of employment, the second factor that causes the greatest social exclusion among the population served by Cáritas. In the last year, the Cáritas Confederation in Spain invested a total of 12.6 million euros in housing aid, which benefited more than 10,000 people.
In this context, the financing of the Amancio Ortega Foundation will make it possible to respond to the difficulties faced by the most vulnerable families in the framework of access to housing: making improvements in the habitability conditions of homes, optimizing the energy efficiency and assuming punctual payment of rents and supplies.
