Italy - Salesian community of Latina at service of others
Latina, Italy - March 2020 - The Salesian community of Latina has created a service and help project carried out in synergy with Caritas Diocesana and the municipality of Latina, which has started in these days. There are three main activities: preparation of sandwiches and takeaway bags at the canteen, and distribution of the same to those who do not have a home to stay at; home delivery of parcels of food to all those who, for various reasons, are unable to leave or are in financial difficulty; flanking the Red Cross (possibility, this, reserved for medical students). More than 50 volunteers, including some young adults of the Educative-Pastoral Community of Latina, immediately gave their availability and the project has already taken off. All in full compliance with safety standards: first of all, the distance of bodies, but not of hearts.
