The Department of Family and Social Services of the City Council of Colmenar Viejo and its Volunteer Information Point section have convened as every year the Volunteers of the Year Awards, which were presented on December 2 on the occasion of the celebrations of the International Volunteer Day.

Do you want to meet them?
