Foundation “la Caixa” program lifts Tenerife girl's education and wellbeing

The Fundación "la Caixa" CaixaProinfancia programme has supported Julieta, a 13‑year‑old from Tenerife, for five years with tutoring, psychological counselling and social accompaniment. The family praised the staff, saying, “Many thanks for all this time with the programme… we have felt very supported, with professional and close treatment.”

The initiative is part of a broader effort that reaches more than 140,000 children, adolescents and young people across Spain each year, working with a network of social organisations. By 2026 the foundation plans to allocate over €700 million to social transformation projects, targeting the most urgent needs.

According to the school, Julieta’s behaviour, school adaptation and academic results have improved markedly, illustrating the impact of sustained, integrated support for vulnerable youth.
