Throughout the day collectors were reporting on the work of VHIR and the Predoctoral Grants Program, and at 5 pm, the Vall d'Hebron Choir joined to perform a free concert for all visitors at the centre.In addition to the activities at the shopping centre, the http://givingtuesday.es/projects/la-inigualable-sensacion-de-investigar-y-salvar-vidas/ challenge "Mi Grano de Arena" for the #GivingTuesday will remain open for a few weeks.
