On Tuesday, June 5th  Julie Barry, president of the La Cala Lions Club gathered with a group of club members at one of the club’s three charity shops to hand over a very generous 5,000-euro cheque to Cudeca Hospice. On hand to collect the club’s donation were our CEO and Medical Director, Marisa Martín, and Deputy CEO and Finance Director, Rafael Olalla, who were delighted to receive these funds which will go towards buying an electricity generator for the in-patients unit, ensuring that essential medical equipment and lighting is kept working at all times. We'd like to give heartfelt thanks to the Mijas La Cala Lions Club for this munificent donation. In 2012 Cudeca granted its highest distinction, the Gold Pin, to the La Cala Lions Club, in appreciation of its continuous support and generosity. It is thanks to support like this that we are able to continue giving its Special Kind of Caring to patients suffering from cancer and other advanced and non-curable illnesses, as well as providing support to their families.
