Overview
- The Centre Instructiu i Musical (CIM) of Massanassa confirmed receiving a 65,000 donation from Johnny Depp’s philanthropic organization, announced around the first anniversary of the floods.
- The funds are earmarked to finish adapting a newly acquired ground‑floor space after the DANA destroyed the school’s original premises, instruments and archives.
- Reports consistently cite the 65,000 amount, with outlets differing on currency (euros vs. dollars), and one account framing it as $75,000, roughly €65,000.
- Businessman Juan Luis Hortelano acted as the intermediary, describing months of documentation and auditing before the payment was approved this week.
- CIM leaders expressed gratitude and plan to try to thank Depp directly, noting his prior public support for Spain during festival appearances and hospital visits.
