The mall Portal de la Marina, owned by Lar España Real Estate Socimi and managed by Grupo Lar through Gentalia is celebrating. He has managed to overcome his second challenge of Solidarity Kilometers, which consists of running 40.000 kilometers for a good cause.

The dynamics were simple, Portal de la Marina encouraged all its clients and non-clients to run and record the kilometers traveled in the challenge “We run together for the mentally ill”, in the Strava mobile application, created for this cause. The objective was to achieve 40.000 kilometers together and, in exchange, the shopping center promised to finance the costs derived from decorating the walls of the corridors of the Hospitalization of Psychiatry ward of the Hospital de Dénia, since it is scientifically proven that our environment influences our mental and emotional well-being.

Once the challenge has been overcome, the shopping center has already been launched by the hand of Alicia López and Antonio Santoyo, multidisciplinary graphic artists known as Sucri and Furyo. Both artists are specialists in murals.

This is the second solidarity challenge that Portal de la Marina achieves, in addition to the first one launched in 2020 with the aim of painting a planetarium in the children's area of ​​the Dénia Hospital. This challenge entitled "Let's run together and we will reach the stars", had the objective of traveling 10.000 kilometers and was overcome in just six days. On this occasion, the artist in charge of painting the hospital was Juan Fernando. His work already decorates the ceilings of the rooms of the admitted children.

From Portal de la Marina they are very happy with the result obtained. “We are excited to have overcome this challenge. We were aware that the challenge was high, four times greater than the previous one, but we trusted so much in our clients and their good faith that we chose to set a big goal so that the motivation for this good cause was greater and show that together if we want to, we can with everything. ”, points out Virginia Carrasco, director of the Portal de la Marina shopping center.
