La Osa, is a Food Coop Market that has been created with the aim of transforming the existing consumption model here in Madrid, Spain, allowing members to participate actively through cooperation and teamwork while building an alternative to commercial profit-oriented business.
To make this transformation happens, we need your help. We need some initial funds, that added to the contribution made by our members, will help us to ensure a mortgage already negotiated with the Ethical bank. This mortgage it´s fundamental to complete successfully our project.
