The campaign 'Dream of colors' contributes to the investigation against the cancer of the woman and the improvement of the well-being of the health of all the women who suffer it.

Over 1300 people participated on September 15 in the solidarity race Nick Horta. This race, which this year celebrates its tenth edition, has raised more than euros 5,000 that have been entirely earmarked for the fight against women's cancer through the 'Dream of Colors' project in Vall d'Hebron.The Nick Horta race, organized by Nick Spa & Sports Clubs, with Clínicum as the main sponsor and l'Obra Social "la Caixa" as the main collaborator, has put its grain of sand in the fight against cancer of the woman. It has been a solidarity race of five kilometers for adults and another 1.5 kilometer child with Tajo Street as the starting point and Ibiza Square as a goal. Keisy supermarkets, MB Motors and Inmo d'Horta have also organized and sponsored the race.The funds raised will help finance two major research programs promoted by Vall d'Hebron. A first project for the creation and development of support groups and emotional management for cancer patients that will affect the most critical moments of the disease, as well as the subsequent analysis of the impact that is generated on the patient in terms of reduction of stress, improvement of quality of life and diminished anguish thanks to these programs. A second, consisting of a biomedical research scholarship for women's cancer for three years, from an investigator who will be integrated into a Vall d'Hebron research group.The solidari handkerchief, designed by artist Clàudia Valsells and with Judit Mascó, Ona Carbonell and Vanesa Lorenzo as campaign ambassadors, can be purchased at Natura stores throughout Spain and Natura online.
