The project 'A for inclusion' of Condemned to Curbing incorporates the workforce to five people with disabilities

The Condenados al Bordillo Association has managed to carry out, for the second consecutive year, the project 'A for inclusion' with the aim of incorporating people with disabilities into the world of work.

This year the number of hired through the project has increased to five.

The creation and maintenance of these jobs is possible thanks to the financial contribution of the multinational biomedical company Pfizer and the Adecco Foundation to support people with difficult access to the world of work, who collaborate in their development by contributing more than 21.000 euros . The Department of Sports and Social Welfare Dénia City Council also participate in the initiative to meet some needs for its implementation.

The project has been presented this morning at the Dénia Town Hall by the Councilor for Social Welfare, Pepa Sivera; the Councilor for Sports, Sisco Signes; the president of Condenados al Bordillo, Jimmy Higueras; María José Diéguez, from the Pfizer company; Mercedes Alcover, representative of the Adecco Foundation and Carlos Bañuls, Alejandro Puig, Sergio Llobell and Vicent Gosálbez, four of the people hired through the initiative.

On behalf of Pfizer, María José Diéguez highlighted the good results of the project and confirmed the intention of the company to continue supporting the proposal in the future.

Mercedes Alcover, on the other hand, has congratulated the association Condenados al bordillo for the work it does every day and for the "illusion" invested in this project. Alcover recalled that the Adecco Foundation is a non-profit organization, created with the aim of helping people with difficult access to the world of work such as people with disabilities, victims of gender violence or the elderly of 45 years.

Since 2006, the foundation has an agreement with the company Pfizer with the dual purpose of offering support to social entities and promoting the social and labor integration of people with disabilities. In the case of "A for inclusion", Pfizer makes the donation of funds to the project and the Adecco Foundation is in charge of managing it.
