The Mett Estepona hotel hosts the first AECC charity dinner in the city

The METT hotel in Estepona hosted the first summer charity dinner organized by the Spanish Association Against Cancer (AECC) in the city, a charity event aimed at raising funds to continue offering free services to cancer patients and their families, as reported this Wednesday by the tourist establishment's director, Ignacio Gómez Escolar.

The charity dinner took place on June 14, gathering representatives from institutional, business, and social sectors in a night marked by solidarity. The cost of the entry ticket for each attendee was entirely donated to the foundation, also allowing participation in a raffle with prizes provided by sponsoring companies.

The organization highlighted that the funds raised will allow the maintenance and expansion of essential services such as psychological care, physiotherapy, social support, orthoprosthesis material lending, workshops, and emotional support programs. The dinner is intended to become an annual event symbolizing Estepona's collective commitment to those undergoing cancer treatment.

Ignacio Gómez Escolar expressed the resort's satisfaction in hosting an event of this nature, emphasizing that “at METT we understand well-being as a comprehensive experience, which also involves being close to those in need.”

“Being part of such a significant evening, and being able to contribute to the positive impact of the AECC in the Estepona community, reinforces our vocation to be a space that is open and committed to the local environment,” he highlighted.

As a sign of commitment, the hotel made a direct donation of 5,000 euros to the association, aimed at reinforcing the continuity of its programs and expanding the reach of its work in the area. As a finale to the evening, a young artist from Estepona altruistically offered a fire show.
