The 43rd Merkatu Txikia / Charity Flea Market Brings Together the Educational and Social Community in Bilbao

The 43rd Merkatu Txikia / Charity Flea Market has once again become a highlight of community gathering, participation, and engagement. Throughout the event, students, families, alumni, volunteers, and the educational community have been involved in an initiative that combines solidarity, education, and collaborative work.

Beyond the collection and sale of items, the charity flea market has established itself as an educational and collective experience that fosters collaboration around a social cause. The participation of so many people has made this new edition possible, marked by shared work and the involvement of many individuals.

The proceeds will go toward supporting vulnerable children participating in Itaka-Escolapios’ social projects in Bilbao, helping to facilitate their access to educational recreation, sports, culture, and academic support.

In this way, the Merkatu Txikia continues to be an initiative that reinforces the commitment to a more just, conscious, and humane society.
