Our Managing Director, José Ángel Preciados, former national football team manager Vicente del Bosque, former Real Madrid player Míchel González, and the Director of the West Syndrome Foundation, Miguel Ángel Barbero, presented this morning the ‘5th Charity Golf Tournament of the Real Madrid Former Players Association’.
During the presentation of the tournament, which took place at our ILUNION Atrium hotel and will benefit the West Syndrome Foundation, José Ángel Preciados highlighted how closely we align with and value collaborating in charity projects like this one: “It is a pleasure to collaborate to help make this world a little more supportive.” In addition, he emphasized that our hotel chain “is deeply committed to social work; for instance, 80% of the employees at this hotel are people with disabilities,” concluding that “the most important thing is to give visibility to a group of people and families who deserve our affection and respect.”
Miguel Ángel Barbero, Director of the West Syndrome Foundation, expressed his hope that “this initiative serves to raise awareness of West syndrome, a rare disease,” which he described as “infantile epilepsy.”
For their part, former national manager Vicente del Bosque and former football player Míchel González stated that they felt “privileged” to collaborate on this project. “The fact that even a single person is facing disability, discrimination, or hardship is reason enough to be here,” said Míchel.
The ‘5th Charity Golf Tournament of the Real Madrid Former Players Association’, of which we are official sponsors, will take place on June 14 at the National Golf Centre (Centro Nacional de Golf).
