The Actor’s Walk: Héctor Melgares’ Filial Initiative

For Melgares, this isn’t just about collecting money; it’s an effort to keep the memory of the tragedy alive. Born and bred in Madrid, but half-Valencian, his connection to the affected regions is deeply personal. “Hay gente que aún no tiene puertas en su casa,” he remarks, emphasizing the urgency of their plight.
A Live Broadcast and Direct Engagement
The trek will be retransmitted live through Melgares’ TikTok account, offering a direct line to his audience. Additionally, a GoFundMe page has been set up where supporters can contribute. His goal is clear: “To convert attention into real, sustained support for the people who need it most.”
A Path of Personal Reflection and Action
Passing through key locations like Utiel, Requena, and Cheste, Melgares plans to maintain a pace of 23 kilometers per day. His journey culminates on Thursday, 12 March 2026, in the heart of València’s Plaza del Ayuntamiento. He expects a warm welcome from locals who have been waiting for such an initiative.
Melgares’ commitment is not just about reaching his destination; it’s about sharing stories and humanizing the crisis. “I want to include interviews with affected residents, giving them a platform to tell their first-hand accounts,” he explains.
Physical Preparation and Public Support
