Families registered in the Curtis City Council can now apply for new aid for birth promotion. The initiative, aimed at supporting family units and retaining population in the municipality, offers grants of up to 300 euros per child.
The application period will be open from this Wednesday, October 14, until December 1, 2026. This support line is intended for families who have had or adopted children between November 16, 2025, and November 15, 2026.
The City Council has allocated a total budget of 10,500 euros for this measure. If the number of applications exceeds the available funds, the amount will be distributed equally among all beneficiaries.
“"It is another step to retain population in our municipality and fight against rural depopulation. It is an incentive and an aid so that the children of our families can grow up in our municipality. In addition to promoting municipal public services for work-life balance and education, we also believe it is important to contribute to the significant economic effort involved in having a child."
To be eligible for this aid, at least one parent must be registered in the Curtis City Council at the time of birth or adoption, and maintain this registration for a minimum of five years along with the child. The child must live with the applicant. Furthermore, beneficiaries must be up-to-date with their tax obligations to the Treasury, Social Security, the Provincial Council, and the City Council itself. In cases of adoption, the child's maximum age will be ten years.
Applications can be submitted at the Casa do Concello de Teixeiro, at the municipal offices in Curtis, or through the electronic headquarters. Required documentation includes the ID card and family book or a literal birth certificate. The cohabitation certificate will be processed by the City Council. This aid is compatible with other grants for similar purposes awarded by public bodies.
