Madrid, 1 December 2021. Traffic accidents are one of the biggest causes of disability in our country, especially among young people. No surprise then that traffic accidents are the main cause of brain damage due to traumatic brain injury. Acutely aware of this, the Línea Directa Foundation has launched a charity calendar to support the Spanish Brain Injury Federation (FEDACE), which seeks to improve the quality of life and social inclusion of people with this particular type of disability.

With this initiative, the Línea Directa Foundation is displaying its firm commitment to ensuring the inclusion of people with disabilities —particularly those resulting from traffic accidents— by giving them greater visibility and helping to raise awareness of this serious problem.

The charity calendar of the Línea Directa Foundation will be available on Amazon within the next few days at a price of 10 euros. All the proceeds will go to the Spanish Brain Injury Federation (FEDACE), which brings together 46 affiliated entities and has more than 11,400 members throughout Spain. Aside from the funds raised from calendar sales, the Línea Directa Foundation will make a direct donation of 3,000 euros to the organisation, whose mission is to improve the quality of life of people with brain injury and their family members.

Through this initiative, the Línea Directa Foundation wishes to draw attention to the outstanding work of FEDACE in supporting people with brain injury and their family members and is calling on the public to donate what they can on the federation's website: https://fedace.org/donar_donacion.html.  The project also relied on the generous support of Tres Cantos Town Council, which allowed the use of the various sporting facilities shown in the photographs.
