Elche CF and the Federation of Fan Clubs organize a charity collection for Casita del Reposo
In a display of steadfast dedication to his team and to the broader community, a long-time supporter of Elche CF stepped forward to help when called upon. His commitment to solidarity initiatives has always been genuine, and this occasion was no exception as he once again mobilized efforts to assist those in need.
Last Sunday, during the match against Cartagena, the Federation of Fan Clubs coordinated a charity drive in collaboration with Elche CF. The initiative focused on gathering cleaning and hygiene products to benefit Casita del Reposo, an organization tirelessly working to assist the most disadvantaged members of society.
The collection took place at the meeting point inside one of the stadiums operated by the Northern Fund of the Martínez Valero complex. It quickly became a collaborative effort, with Peñas Federation leaders and Casita del Reposo representatives expressing deep gratitude for the generous response and the substantial volume of donated goods. The event underscored the strong ties between fans, clubs, and charitable causes within the Elche community. [Citation: Peñas Federation and Casita del Reposo report, FPECF]
Donations were not limited to everyday essentials. Through the company La Liquidadora, toys were also delivered to support children in need. This social outreach is part of a broader pattern seen across the Franjiverde clubs, where similar initiatives are carried out by individual groups, particularly in the weeks leading up to the Christmas holidays.

In addition to the main drive, Peña Rabuts de Novelda organized a separate collection at its local headquarters, gathering basic foods, hygiene products, cleaning supplies, and toys. All items collected were scheduled to be handed over to Cáritas, reinforcing a broader network of support across the region. Tickets for upcoming Elche CF matches and a ball signed by the first team were offered as raffles to encourage participation among donors. [Citation: Peña Rabuts de Novelda report, FPECF]
Another solidarity effort involved the Franjiverde and Petrer clubs planning a similar drive for the upcoming weekend. The operation, named after its coordinating hub La Mola bar, focuses on essential liquids and cleaning products to meet the day-to-day needs of families in the area. This ongoing collaboration reflects a shared commitment to social responsibility among supporters and the club itself. [Citation: Operation Liter, FPECF]
Across these actions, the spirit remains consistent: fans, groups, and the Elche club stand ready to support one another and to extend their efforts beyond the stadium. The collective aim is clear — to provide meaningful help at a time when generosity can make a real difference in the lives of those facing hardship. [Citation: Community impact report, FPECF]
