This year, a very special partner also participated in Fendtgüinos, the Food Bank of La Rioja, a nonprofit organization dedicate to alleviating the food needs of the most disadvantaged people. The Food Bank of La Rioja and Sigfito presented the solidarity glass at the event, a fully recyclable organic glass, which for only one Euro gave visitors the opportunity to drink all they wanted at the event, while keeping the field trash-free. In this way, the visitors were pleased to collaborate with the Food Bank, with the entire proceeds from the sale of the glasses going to an organization which is so necessary in the times we live in. Over 3,500 Euros were raised at Fendtgüinos and will go directly to those who do not have enough to eat.
By committing itself even further to its social work, Fendt not only had farmers in mind while organizing Fendtgüinos, but was also thinking about the future, and therefore Editorial Agrícola used the event to promote its project "Conocer la Agricultura" ("Learning About Agriculture") sponsored by Fendt, through which it aims to bring the agricultural world to children, to educate young people to respect agriculture, and to understand and value the work of farmers. In the central area of the grounds, an area dedicated to youngsters, the farmers of the future enjoyed memory games and a giant Game of the Goose, pedal tractors, fun activities and candy, with the aim of teaching kids to love their parents' agricultural work. A great time was had by all!
