The funds raised will be used to enhance free social transport services in the area, a vital activity carried out by local Red Cross volunteers to ensure mobility and assistance for vulnerable people and those in need.
To emphasize the importance of the event, Ramia Osvaldo Ristuccia, President of Anima Universale, called Dr. Manuel Caselli, President of the Leinì Committee of the Italian Red Cross (first on the left in the photo below, next to Ramia Osvaldo Ristuccia), to join him on the altar, along with the volunteers present.
The touching words of friendship and gratitude spoken by Dr. Manuel Caselli moved those present, who warmly welcomed the volunteers, expressing admiration for their commitment and enthusiastically joining the appeal for solidarity.
As a sign of gratitude, President Caselli donated the emblem of the Red Cross Committee to the Church Anima Universale, explaining that it is the symbol that has represented them in the area for 160 years and expresses the fundamental principles for which they were born and continue to operate. We are deeply honored to be able to keep this gift among our most cherished memories.
The event also provided an opportunity to publicly recognize the silent but essential work carried out daily by Red Cross volunteers in the area.
The initiative once again confirms the friendship between the Church Anima Universale and the Leini Red Cross, sharing the values of help, support, and care for those most in need.
