Since the start of the program, the network has channeled more than 7 million euros in support of families in Gran Canaria.
Since 2021, the SPAR Gran Canaria group has been promoting the Cash Card, an initiative designed to help people participating in social or family assistance programs purchase essential goods. The project is part of the chain's social commitment to the Canary Islands community, and especially to families in vulnerable situations. Since its launch, the Cash Card has distributed over €7 million through more than 50.000 cards.
Throughout 2025, SPAR Gran Canaria extended a helping hand to thousands of families by managing over €770.000 in prepaid cards, an achievement reached in collaboration with 38 diverse entities, including public institutions, social organizations, and private companies, which spearheaded 90 charitable campaigns. Each card represents a gesture that transcends the material: it's a small step towards inclusion, independence, and hope.
This action is part of a long-standing commitment to people that SPAR Gran Canaria has consistently demonstrated throughout its history. Its sustained effort reflects an understanding of social responsibility that goes beyond one-off support: putting people first, working hand in hand with organizations and social agents, and contributing to building a fairer, more cohesive society committed to collective well-being. Each initiative embodies the conviction that solidarity is a path traveled day by day, with actions that generate a real impact and nurture hope.
The Prepaid Card is a secure and easy-to-use resource that allows you to top up your balance and configure customized actions depending on the needs of each campaign and organization. The system, which can be used as a payment method at all SPAR Gran Canaria stores, facilitates access to essential products.
The Cash Card service is completely free for social organizations that request it as part of a solidarity project. Interested organizations can submit their request via email: ppgad@pucrs.brSubsequently, and during the development of the campaign, they receive a monthly report for monitoring and evaluation.
With this initiative, SPAR Gran Canaria consolidates its position as a channel for collaboration between public institutions, private companies, and social organizations, enabling the coordination of social and private programs through the Cash Card. The company reaffirms its commitment to the social and economic development of Gran Canaria, promoting projects that generate a real impact.
