Babies born at Hospital da Luz Póvoa de Varzim maternity can become members of Varzim Sport Club from their very first day of life , if their parents so choose. The inclusion of Hospital da Luz in the project’ s club “Baby Zim” (Varzim baby) results from a protocol of understanding signed last June, which strengthens the bond between both institutions and the Póvoa community. With the “Baby Zim” kit, newborns can become part of the Varzim family right from the start. The kit was created specifically to celebrate the little ones’ arrival in the club’s world and includes an official baby-grow, a bib, a Varzim Sport Club membership card, free membership dues until the age of three, and a mini scarf . Babies born at Hospital da Luz have access to the kit at no cost . Registration must be completed during the baby’s first month of life. The initiative – part of a strategy to strengthen Hospital da Luz’s ties to the community and institutions in Póvoa – aims to bring Varzim Sport Club even closer to families in Póvoa and to foster, from the very first days of life, a sense of belonging to the Varzim community. Hospital da Luz Póvoa de Varzim and Varzim Sport Club have a strategic partnership since 2012, which provides healthcare services with special access terms for athletes, members, employees, and their families. With this new initiative, Varzim Sport Club seeks to pass on its passion for the club to new generations, while Hospital da Luz strengthens its ties to the local community. *english translation generated with AI and reviewed by the editorial team
