On June 6th the Calabrian delegation offered some products to Father Giuseppe Saraceno, belonging to the community of Little Brothers and Sisters of the Immaculate Conception of Pellegrina. He had recently expressed his apprehension because of the increase in the number of families assisted by the parish; so the delegation decided to help.
In order to respond to the appeal of H.R.H. Prince Charles of Bourbon Two Sicilies, Duke of Castro, Head of the Royal House and Grand Master, to help the most needy Italian hospitals and those who work there, the delegation launched his own fundraising, thanks to which $ 50.000 were raised.
An anonymous donation of $ 5,000 to the memory of the departed Vincenzo Martino, who was given the Order’s Merit Medal a few weeks before he died of Covid-19, was particularly meaningful.
These sums were then deposited on the Charity Onlus platform.
