What EAPN Galicia. Rede Europea contra Pobreza e Exclusión Social does

EAPN Galicia (legal name: Red Europea de lucha contra la pobreza y la exclusión social en el estado español de la CCAA de Galicia; CIF G70209549) is the Galician branch of the European Anti-Poverty Network (EAPN), founded in 1990 and operating as a Third Sector non-profit association headquartered at R. da República de El Salvador, 3, 2ª D, 15701, Santiago de Compostela. Its function is to coordinate a regional network of social-action entities, NGOs, cooperatives, and ethical banks around poverty and social exclusion in Galicia, providing advocacy, research, and convening infrastructure rather than commercial products or services. Core offerings include the annual 'Estado da Pobreza en Galicia' research report series, the Encuentros Gallegos de Participación forum, technical seminars, style guides on inclusive language, the weekly EnRedeSocial newsletter, and campaigns such as #ContrAporofobia and the 'Tolerancia e respecto' declaration. Headcount is reported at seven employees, supported by a network of over 175 Third Sector member entities.

The business model is non-commercial and grant-funded: revenue streams consist of EU Next Generation EU grants (the website is explicitly 'financiada por la Unión Europea – Next Generation EU'), the Spanish X Solidaria / Casilla Empresa Solidaria solidarity-tax programs (IRPF and corporate tax allocation), member-organization contributions, and individual donations accepted via Bizum (code 12487). In 2025, these solidarity-tax mechanisms financed 812 general-interest social programs with 34.3 million euros across Galicia's Third Sector, of which EAPN Galicia is a coordinator; the Casilla Empresa Solidaria line alone raised 4.7 million euros in the region, up 53.6% year-over-year. Go-to-market is community-led: the organization mobilizes member entities, conducts and publishes research, and advocates directly to the Xunta de Galicia, Parliament of Galicia, and European institutions. No traditional pricing exists; all activities, publications, and programs are provided free to member entities and beneficiaries.
