  "account": "Residents of Axarquia are being urged to support their neighbors during the Bancosol food drive in 2026. The Great Food Collection, or Gran Recogida de Alimentos, takes place on November 13 and 14. Contributions can be made through a small donation at the supermarket till, starting from just €1. Bancosol, the Costa del Sol Food Bank, aims to raise over €450,000 to support 20,589 vulnerable people through 129 social organizations. Rising living costs and ongoing hardship make public generosity essential for maintaining food supplies for families who might otherwise go without. Volunteers will be present at collection points to explain the campaign and thank shoppers for their support. Major supermarket chains like Grupo MAS, Carrefour, El Corte Ingles, Alcampo, Eroski, Dia, El Jamon and Mercadona are participating in the event, with 285 stores involved in Axarquia. Donations can also be made through Bizum, Spain's instant mobile-payment service, using the code 00887. Every contribution, regardless of size, contributes to a wider network of support for households in need.",
