According to RMC, Messi has allocated 2.6 million euros through his foundation to support the construction of a pediatric cancer center in Barcelona. He has consistently undertaken charitable initiatives in the medical, educational, and sports sectors through his foundation.
As a UNICEF ambassador, Messi has long supported children and adolescents in vulnerable situations. Recently, through the foundation he established at age 20, he donated 2.6 million euros toward the construction of the SJD Pediatric Cancer Center in Barcelona.
The SJD Pediatric Cancer Center is an ambitious project with a total investment of approximately 30 million euros. The 5,137-square-meter facility is designed to treat up to 400 pediatric cancer patients annually and consolidates various medical services related to childhood cancer treatment under one roof.
The center's completion was made possible by donations from multiple organizations, businesses, and individuals, including the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner.
However, Messi's charitable work extends far beyond this project. The Inter Miami forward reinvests his wealth into humanitarian initiatives in healthcare, education, and sports.
On his foundation's website, one can find details of various public welfare initiatives, including funding research into childhood leukemia, donating medical equipment to hospitals in his hometown of Rosario, and implementing malnutrition prevention programs in Mozambique.
The foundation also uses sports as a vehicle for social inclusion, organizing charity runs, sports activities, and competitions to help young people maintain healthy lifestyles. Additionally, the foundation participates in renovating and building sports facilities.
For example, in Argentina, a sports facility built by the foundation serves both a local school and the broader community. Donating sports equipment to relevant institutions remains an important component of the humanitarian work undertaken by Messi's foundation.
