They are helps of the Spanish Association against the Cancer, yesterday there did the delivery of 2,4 million Euros to two projects of investigation that will benefit for five years the works coordinated from the Center of Investigation of the Cancer of Salamanca and from the Puerta de Hierro Hospital of Madrid. Also they delivered prizes to persons and institutions that collaborate with the institution or fight against the cancer.
The Princess is not officially a patron of the association, but she collaborates with them, already she has gone to several acts and last year she was in this act.
Every Royal House has a different way of working, the members of the Spanish Royal Family are not patrons, they are Presidents of Honor of the organizations. Though they are presidents of honor of many specific acts, only they link themselves permanently to some organizations. They choose few organizations, so that they could know and work really with them, and not to be only a representative name. The Princess has received many requests, and the Royal House has decided to wait, to analyze the requests, that the princess goes to some acts and knows them, then to decide to which she links permanently.
Princess of Asturias Letizia Ortiz has given the Oncology Research Aids in Salamanca.
