Sant Jordi showing solidarity to tackle the pandemic

23-04-2020 | Turisme de Barcelona

To mark this year’s Sant Jordi, Turisme de Barcelona has launched a solidarity campaign to raise funds for research into the pandemic with a donation to the Hospital Clínic.

The campaign invites social network users to download a solidarity rose for 1 € and send it to a loved one. The funds raised will be donated in full to the Hospital Clínic to help in its fight against the coronavirus. Users can also download a free digital booklet featuring Barcelona’s Literary Trails as part of an initiative to promote Catalan literature and writers.

The campaign is being promoted in the banners of VisitBarcelona, Tickets and on all Turisme de Barcelona’s social networks with the hashtag #RosaSolidariaStJordi2020. The rose has been designed by Cinta Arribas, and is also featured on a poster that will be displayed on 23rd July, the rescheduled date of our book day.
