The River Foundation’s first solidarity auction in 2022 left a millionaire collection. Thanks to the sale of (signed) shirts used by Julián Álvarez, Enzo Fernández, Matías Suárez and David Martínez against Fortaleza, for the Copa Libertadores, nearly a million pesos were raised, a record figure for this event that takes place every years.
The collection is exactly 909,000 pesos. And the amount raised, as reported by the River Foundation, will be allocated to the “Youth to the World” program, where the foundation provides educational scholarships to high school students from the Filii Dei school and university students, who live in the Barrio Father Carlos Mugica (former neighborhood 31).
