Lionel Messi, the Barcelona
footballer, donated one million pesos, about 152 thousand euros for the
rehabilitation of a sports complex in a depressed area of Rosario,
Argentina.
"The rehabilitation of this sports complex will benefit thousands of
people in this area of the city," said Rolando del Lago, the
municipality responsible for sports.
Messi, who at age 13 left the Newell `s Old Boys from Rosario to head to
Barcelona, has a foundation that has made several works of charity in
the town.
