Casa de la Caritat, Social assistance center in El Botànic, Valencia, Spain
The Casa de la Caritat provides shelter, food services, and educational support through ten residential homes and two temporary accommodation centers in Valencia.
Founded in 1906 by physician José Sanchís Bergón during his term as mayor of Valencia, the institution opened its doors in 1909 with King Alfonso XIII.
The organization operates three early childhood education centers offering free formal education while monitoring the socio-economic conditions of underprivileged families.
Located at Paseo de la Pechina 9, the center receives 70% of its funding from private donations and 30% from public grants to maintain its services.
The building, designed by architects Francisco Almenar Quinzá and José Cort Botí, combines brick, wood, and cast iron in its rationalist architecture.
