Celebrating Tradition and Unity: ONCE Dedicates Coupon to Christ of Souls of the Blind

ONCE, the esteemed Spanish organization dedicated to supporting the visually impaired, is gearing up for a momentous occasion as it dedicates its coupon to the "Christ of Souls of the Blind" throughout Spain. This special dedication coincides with the 375th Anniversary of the Santísimo Cristo de ánimas de Ciegos de Málaga, marking a significant milestone in the rich cultural heritage of Malaga and beyond.

The unveiling ceremony, led by José Miguel Luque, the director of ONCE in Malaga, and Leonor Basallote, the vice-president of the Territorial Council of ONCE in Andalusia, Ceuta, and Melilla, was a poignant tribute to the enduring legacy of the Christ of Souls of the Blind. The ceremony, held at the parish of the Church of San Juan, saw the presentation of the coupon to esteemed figures such as the elder brother of the Royal Merged Brotherhoods of Malaga and the butler of the Santísimo Cristo de ánimas de Ciegos, signifying the deep-rooted connection between ONCE and the local community.

The commemorative coupon features a striking close-up of the Christ's face, adorned with the emblem of the Brotherhood, serving as a heartfelt token of appreciation to the people of Malaga for their unwavering support and trust in ONCE's social initiatives. José Miguel Luque expressed profound gratitude, stating that the Christ of Souls of the Blind resonates deeply with everyone at ONCE in Malaga, embodying values of compassion, solidarity, and inclusivity.

The 375th anniversary celebration not only pays homage to a revered tradition but also underscores the social importance of organizations like the Merged Brotherhoods of Malaga, which have long been at the forefront of supporting vulnerable members of society. Luque praised the Brotherhoods' dedicated social work, highlighting their impact on the community's well-being and emphasizing the shared values that unite society.

As part of the festivities, a significant contingent from ONCE will participate in the procession of the Brotherhood of the Santísimo Cristo de ánimas de Ciegos de Malaga on Holy Wednesday, further cementing ONCE's enduring relationship with the Brotherhood since 1939. The procession symbolizes unity, faith, and the collective spirit of community support.

The ONCE Daily Coupon, renowned for its generous prizes, including €500,000 for the number plus the series, reflects ONCE's commitment to responsible gaming practices and social responsibility. The dedication of the coupon to the "Christ of Souls of the Blind" encapsulates ONCE's mission to promote inclusivity, celebrate diversity, and foster a more compassionate and united society.

Amazing initiative by ONCE! Really showcases the power of empathy and unity. As Plato said, seeing with the eyes of another, feeling with the heart of another. ?? #Empathy #Unity #CulturalHeritage
