Fundraising by Antonella Loriga

The day care center "Il Girasole", managed by the Cooperativa Sociale San Damiano (which is part of the Comunità Papa Giovanni XXIII) has been an example of inclusion of people with disabilities for more than 20 years in the Sardinian territory. It operates in Sorso, my birthplace, and it also welcomes people coming from nearby towns (Sennori, Tergu, Valledoria, Ploaghe, Chiarmonti, Sassari).

I am a direct witness of the birth of the centre in the 90s. It was there that I took the first steps of what later became my profession and above all, a less obvious but much more important aspect, it was through meeting some of the people in that centre that I discovered the indispensable importance of social ties, sharing and inclusion of all forms of diversity. Three great women, Lucia, Anna and Simonetta, to name but a few, taught me this.

Now we need torequalify the spaces and open a second day centre for training and work inclusion.

With this collection of mine and your contribution, friends of the race, friends of psychoanalysis and simply friends of mine, let's contribute together so that this second center takes hold in the territory as soon as possible.

You can donate even a small amount or as much as you want and you can. But if everyone contributes, in a flash we reach the finish line and whoever runs knows well what a great satisfaction it is to cross that finish line every time and to do it with the jersey of your team! An individual joy but not without the others.
