The first 29 voucher cards are already in the hands of vulnerable families in Ronda. They were handed out this Monday, after their processing was completed, out of a total of 67 applications registered in the city, as detailed by the Ronda City Council. Each card allows the purchase of basic food and hygiene products in certain supermarkets. The amount ranges from 130 to 220 euros per month depending on the number of family members, and the aid lasts for one year. The programme is called the Basic Material Assistance Programme of Andalusia and is funded by the Regional Government of Andalusia and the European Union through the European Social Fund Plus, as well as by the central Government. The granting is managed through Cruz Roja and the Municipal Department of Social Rights. Ronda has been the town in the province with the highest number of voucher cards managed, according to data handled by the municipal area of Social Rights. The mayor of Ronda, Mari Paz Fernández, has stressed that «the aim of this aid is for these families to be able to cope with material deprivation». At the handover she was accompanied by the councillor for Social Rights, Cristina Durán.
