"Say Yes to Life"; March for Life Madrid Spain Saturday March 26th


A mass demonstration in Madrid will be the central act of the International Pro-life Day in Spain

It will be held on 26 March at 12.00 noon, starting at Plaza Cibeles and finishing  at Puerta del Sol.

 “Say yes to Life” will be the watchword of the march,  with which the organizing associations wish to express their common desire to defend life from conception to its natural end – that is, the recognition & defense of life is a primary human right.  

The organizers want to make this march an annual event as already happens in many other countries.

48 civil associations, at a recent press conference, announced a mass demonstration to mark International Pro-life Day, which is celebrated throughout the world on 25 March, and the agenda for numerous events which will take place around that date. Taking part in the press conference were:  Alicia Latorre, President of the Federation of Spanish Pro-life Associations, Carmina García Valdés, General Director of the Redmadre Foundation, Manuel Cruz, Director of the Vida Foundation, Gádor Joya, spokesperson of Right to Life, and Yolanda Melul, spokesperson of the Madrona Foundation.

The date announced for the celebration of life is Saturday, 26 March at 12 noon, a time suited to all those who wish to take part in the event from Madrid and its surrounding areas.
