THE RAFA NADAL FOUNDATION AND CALCONUT JOIN FORCES TO PROMOTE HEALTHY EATING AMONG MORE THAN 550 CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS.
On World Food Day, the Rafa Nadal Foundation presents a new valuable partnership with Calconut, aimed at reinforcing its commitment to balanced nutrition and healthy lifestyle habits for the more than 550 children, adolescents, and families who participate in the Rafa Nadal Foundation Centers in Palma, Valencia, and Madrid.
• More than 550 children, adolescents, and their families will benefit from this initiative in the Rafa Nadal Foundation Centers of Palma, Valencia, and Madrid.
• Calconut donates 1,800 kg of nuts, spreads, and granola from its nut&me brand to enrich daily snacks in the centers.
• The partnership between the Rafa Nadal Foundation and Calconut includes workshops and educational activities on nutrition and healthy habits, aimed at children and families.
• The collaboration is based on both organizations’ shared commitment to promoting healthy habits.
Thanks to this new collaboration, the children of the Rafa Nadal Foundation Centers will be able to include in their snacks a selection of nuts, spreads, and nut&me granolas donated by Calconut, thus enriching their daily food intake and improving the nutritional quality of the products they receive each afternoon in the centers.
A partnership that nourishes the future
In addition to the donation of 1,800 kg of products made by Calconut, various themed workshops and awareness activities will be held with the help of nutrition experts, bringing participants and their families closer to the value of healthy and balanced eating as a driver of health and well-being.
For several years now, the Rafa Nadal Foundation Centers in Palma, Valencia, and Madrid have been reinforcing their snacks with nutritious products, healthy cooking workshops, and educational activities involving both children and their families. This alliance represents another step forward in the commitment to nurturing generations that are more aware and responsible for their nutritional health.
“Healthy eating is not only an essential complement for children’s physical development but also influences their emotional well-being, their learning ability, and the way they relate to their environment. At the Rafa Nadal Foundation, we work every day so that the habits acquired in childhood become a solid foundation for the future, and this alliance with Calconut and the Juan Peregrín Foundation reinforces that purpose. We share the belief that education, sport, and health go hand in hand to guarantee equal opportunities and full development during childhood and adolescence,”
says María Francisca Perelló, Director of the Rafa Nadal Foundation.
“At Calconut, we believe that food is much more than a business: it is a way to transform realities. This partnership with the Rafa Nadal Foundation represents exactly that — the commitment to use what we do best to create a positive impact. This is not a one-off collaboration but a statement of intent. We want our approach to food — healthy, responsible, and close — to reach those who need it most. And doing so alongside an organization that symbolizes effort, humility, and perseverance fills us with pride. From Alicante, we continue to prove that it is possible to grow while staying true to our values and making a lasting mark on society,” highlights Héctor Serrano Fontal, CEO of Calconut.
The Rafa Nadal Foundation has signed an alliance with Calconut, a leading company from Alicante in the nut sector, for its commitment to health, sustainability, and people.
At Calconut, we understand that food is a way to transform realities. That’s why sustainability is not just a goal but part of our identity. Every step we take aims to optimize resources, reduce impact, and create value. We have more than 1,200 photovoltaic panels that allow us to be energy self-sufficient, and we reuse water from our processes for irrigation — a circular economy model that grows with purpose.
With the construction of our new plant in Mutxamel (Alicante), we continue to promote employment, development, and opportunities for our community. Through nut&me and its innovation laboratory, nut&me Lab, we listen to consumers and turn ideas into real products that promote well-being. And through the Juan Peregrín Foundation — Calconut’s social arm — we channel our social commitment by promoting projects in education, health, and the environment.
