Valencia CF show support for fight against cancer

The club were present at the AECC's annual fundraiser at Mestalla

Valencia CF, headed by president Anil Murthy, showed the club's support for the investigation and treatment of cancer at what has become a yearly event. At their annual fundraiser this week, the Asociación Española Contra el Cáncer (Spanish Association Against Cancer) set up a donation table at Mestalla alongside the VIP box, receiving the visit of many generous Valencians.

"I think that today is a day in which to remind everybody that -before Covid-19, during Covid-19 and after Covid-19- there are social causes that we can't stop supporting. Today we are here show that this club, as a very important civic organisation here, are going to keep supporting important social causes," Mr. Murthy told VCF Media at the event on Thursday.
