Xavi Hernandez will donate his 25,000 Euros prize money he got from winning the Prince of Asturias for Sport. The award which he received in Oviedo alongside with his friend Iker Casillas, will be allocated to one of Obra Social La Caixa’s programs in combating child poverty. The funds will be channeled through Can Palet, a hometown children organization which Xavi supports, in building more schools in Terrasa.
Since January 2012, Xavi was named as an Ambassador for La Caixa’s Social Work programs.
