Since the foundation of “El Camí de la Solidaritat” in 2013, we have supported and collaborated with local entities whose aim was to help the population of Cambrils. During this period of time, we have maintained our scope of intervention within the local community, where we have carried out six projects with different associations. However, we have recently extended our vision and field of action on a global level, and, in 2020, “El Camí de la Solidaritat” has consolidated itself as an NGO.
Our main cause
From 2020
AWASUKA Program
This year El Cami de la Solidaritat is working on the AWASUKA project in Nepal, in collaboration with the NGO Base-A.
The AWASUKA program always works from different lines of action, with a clear objective: to transmit to the inhabitants of the area knowledge and awareness of safe houses. This has been developed through the construction of antiseismic houses, smoke-free kitchens and awareness of water treatment.

ENACH
Maria and Inés are 6 years old and live in Cambrils. They both suffer from PLAN (PLA2G6 associated neurodegeneration), a rare disease characterised by a progressive degeneration of the nervous system. The goal of this edition was to raise awareness for this illness. With great effort, we appeared on national TV, where we talked about PLAN in a special edition for rare diseases.
In total, there was an audience of 369,000 people and we raised €4,166 to donate towards research of the illness.
