There are multiple charities & charity shops located all across Jávea, however as the majority of workers in these shops are volunteers, their opening and closing times are a little different from other clothing shops. 

In a small Javea charity, a small amount of money can make a huge difference. What may not seem a lot to you, may be a huge helping hand to others. Not a lot of people have indispensable cash, but even 1 euro or 5 euro can make all the difference – and you don’t even have to donate money. A lot of local charities are always looking for volunteers to donate just a couple of hours of their time to helping their community in Javea. In a small charity, it is also more likely that you will see how that money is spent – you know face to face who is being helped and can become more personally involved with the cause.

When you donate, fundraise or volunteer for a small charity in Javea and tell your friends, you are helping raise awareness without even knowing it. Even a Facebook post or two can be a huge help to a small charity!
