Royal Canin is another of the companies that are doing their bit to help in this difficult situation that we are experiencing. The company, specialized in feeding dogs and cats, will collaborate with the Red Cross Respond Plan launched by the Spanish Red Cross.
Royal Canin’s help will be articulated on two fronts. On the one hand, it will make a financial contribution that will contribute to the acquisition of 5,000 personal protective equipment, a dozen volumetric respirators and medical supplies . On the other hand, it will facilitate the delivery of essential goods to people vulnerable to the coronavirus, directly to homes, places of confinement or the entities that manage these spaces.
“The critical situation we are experiencing, as individuals and as a society, requires that companies be not only economic, but also social actors. At Royal Canin we are very clear that we must collaborate and we are going to do so hand in hand with the Red Cross, participating in two programs that help with very specific needs ”, comments Carlos Andrés-Luna, General Manager of Royal Canin Iberia.
Royal Canin associates will also be able to join the cause by contributing what they see fit. In this way, it will be contributing to a project that seeks to mitigate the effects of the pandemic in our country.
The company does not forget its reason for being, the health of pets , and is working to guarantee their well-being with a general and coordinated framework of action. The main objective is to help improve the situation that many pets are experiencing these days.
