Help in Pollenca. Since June this year, Predator has been helping in Pollenca. In cooperation with the well-known restaurant R3SPIRA, which is run by Nicola Celentano, a native Italian and a truly fabulous chef!
Cooperation with R3SPIRA. The R3SPIRA, which when I wrote the blog article, by the way, was listed in TripAdvisor at number 1 of the best restaurants in Pollenca, prepares every Tuesday a complete menu for pickup for the needy families of the idyllic place. In the morning, when Nico and his wife Lorena would actually have their day off, give out the meals. Before that, of course, there is the shopping and the preparation. Nico and Lorena work voluntarily in their free time and make their kitchen available, Predator SL covers the costs of the food.
We immediately got help from the team in the town hall of Pollenca. The social worker Maria Cerda, her colleagues Maria Amgenual and David Llorens were spontaneously prepared to meet in order to find a common concept for this form of assistance. We then agreed that the town hall would issue vouchers to needy families, which they could redeem with us. The families come with their own reusable dishes. And are given the menu according to the number of family members.
Corona hit the island hard - help in Pollenca
In the beginning, when the Corona measures hit the island the hardest, Nico cooked for 150 families a week, about 300-400 portions. After tourism picked up again, this was reduced to 50 - 100 families per week.
For R3SPIRA as well as for us at Predator, this project is a matter of the heart. We feel very connected to Pollenca and therefore do not see this action as a short-term stopgap, but as long-term support for those in our midst who are not doing so well. The support will be taken over by our foundation in the future.
Greetings from the island,
