5 things you didn’t know about Pepe

Buying food for the needy

This is the other side of Pepe; the face that comes as a surprise given his aggressive nature on the field. Most of us that are reading this are ones who manage to eat at least thrice a day. However, there are many people in this world dying of starvation.

Pepe, who grew up in adverse conditions himself, knew the pain of these people and decided to donate 9000 (Nine thousand, yes) kilos of food to 200 families in the Madrid neighbourhood of Las Rozas.

This happened two weeks before the Christmas of 2014; it was his way of ensuring that the under-privileged families had a blessed and merry Christmas.
