Salamanca, Castilla y León, Spain
Convento de la Madre de Dios
A 16th-century Renaissance convent a few meters from Salamanca's Plaza Mayor, commissioned in 1543 by the university professor Francisco de Loarte on the site of his own house and that of the comunero captain Francisco Maldonado. A community of Franciscan sisters still lives there.
Masonry is coming loose from the cornice of the convent tower and pieces sometimes fall into a busy pedestrian street. The money pays for urgent repair and consolidation of the tower.
Before you act. The campaign's title speaks of a roof repair while its text describes the tower cornice; expect tower and roof-edge masonry. Only a percentage raised is shown.

Valladolid, Spain
About 200 timber ceiling beams in the first floor of the cloister are failing from age, damp and wood-boring insects; many must be replaced and the rest treated. The 'Apadrina una viga' (sponsor a beam) appeal prices each beam at 300 euros.
Palma de Mallorca, Spain
A ruined building in the convent orchard, beside a central city street, is shored up, damp and at risk of collapse. The appeal funds its urgent repair.
