Xavi Hernández supports a solidarity project

Xavi Hernández declared: “We’re feeling good. We’re top of the league, the Champions League game is on good course and we’re in the cup final” when speaking about the FC Barcelona first team’s current form. 

He was attending the presentation of the new Hospital de Dia Infantil project, to which he has made a gift, and explained that “we are in great form, the people are happy and we’re enjoying ourselves. We feel happy on the field”.

Xavi Hernández and his wife Núria Cunillera decided to donate their wedding gifts. The money will help to finance the new Hospital de Dia Infantil children’s facilities at the Sant Joan de Déu, which will have twice the capacity it does at present and will help to attend to patients with chronic illnesses using latest generation equipment and more comfortable facilities for the children and their families.

During the presentation of the new premises, which is also being supported by Obra Social ‘La Caixa’, the footballer said that “we are very excited about this project as we want to help the people that are most in need, namely children and their families”.

The Barça player decided to collaborate after learning about the case of a child who died of cancer at the hospital last year.
