Making dreams come true
www.fcbarcelona.cat
The FC Barcelona Foundation helps seriously ill children to meet first team footballers and see one of their dreams come true. More than thirty children benefit from this activity each year.
This is done behind closed
doors, and is rarely given much visibility, but put delight on many little faces. And it is an area
that the Foundation is diligently dedicated to continuing on a regular basis.
Periodical visits
The Foundation usually organises this visits to take place after first team training sessions
at the Ciutat Esportiva, in coordination with the Fundación Ilusiones and the Fundación Pequeño
Deseo, two organisations that do a lot of work in this area.
Sensitive to vulnerable cases
Meeting Messi, Iniesta, Puyol or any of the other players is a dream come true for these
children. Posing for photographs and getting autographs from these people, is a pricesless moment
of joy for families going through difficult times. This is just one more example of the Foundation
constant commitment to less fortunate children in our own country.
