Bankia and Fundación La Caja de Canarias have announced that they will support social projects in the islands with 175,000 euros thanks to the launch of the ‘Convocatoria de ayudas de Acción Social 2021’.

The financial institution has explained that this call is aimed at non-profit entities that develop their activity in the Islands and that focus on improving the quality of life of people with disabilities and other groups that are at risk of social exclusion or affected by the new social needs arising from the coronavirus.

Bankia has consolidated its commitment to society through five priority lines of social action: employment and training, housing, local and rural development, disability and the environment. The bank focuses its social investment in these areas and maintains its commitment to society through the involvement of its entire structure and professionals.

In this way, Bankia contributes to five of the 17 SDGs: Climate Action (SDG 13), Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8), Quality Education (SDG 4), Sustainable Cities and Communities (SDG 11) and SDG 17, which cuts across all of them, Partnerships to Achieve the Goals.

La Caja de Canarias was born as a result of an agreement of the Cabildo Insular of the island of Gran Canaria in the first months of 1939. The presence of an entity with the characteristics of a savings bank, linked, as tradition dictated, to a Monte de Piedad, was a need felt by the whole of society, which was dragging and being dragged along by the aftermath of a war. The population of the island, especially of its capital, was in danger of losing the scarce savings it had and of not being able to undertake business projects due to lack of financing. A savings bank was then, in the not mistaken opinion of the Cabildo, an urgent necessity.

This presence of the institution, fundamentally marked by a closely regulated financial market, is noticeable in the basic sectors of our economy: agriculture, tourism, port, construction and commerce. Agricultural loans offer very attractive financing conditions, while support for tourism companies and those related to this sub-sector is palpably noticeable. The port is reinforced with the participation of La Caja in the creation of an important shipyard for naval repairs and families, on the other hand, saw their access to housing facilitated thanks not only to the loans and savings modalities that made the purchase of homes more attractive, but also to the promotions promoted by the entity; finally, commerce counted on La Caja as a natural ally for the development of its activity.
