Torre Annunziata, Italy – March 2024 - Twenty years since the murder of Matilde Sorrentino, twenty years of life of "Mamma Matilde" Childrens Community in Torre Annunziata and the"Small steps, big dreams" Association who are members of Salesians for Social Matilde Sorrentino was a woman and a mother from Torre Annunziata (Naples), who in 1997 denounced a pedophile ring in her son's school. He was also a victim of abuse. In 2004, she was killed, shot in front of her son. In that same year we were finishing the work of the "Small steps big dreams" in the childrens community in Torre Annunziata. "It seemed right to us to call it Mamma Matilde: here we welcome many young people who do not have a mother and we have chosen to make Matilde Sorrentino ‘enter’ the community with her courage, her dignity and her practicality", explains Rino Balzano, social worker in the Community. A few days before Matilda's murder, Annalisa Durante was killed in Naples. Twenty years later, the Salesians in Torre Annunziata wanted to remember Annalisa and Matilde with two conferences. The first, on 22 March with young people from the communities and the oratory at Torre Annunziata who met some relatives of the victims and at the end gave rise to a procession to Matilde's house. On 26 March, the Salesian house in Torre Annunziata hosted the conference twenty years after the death of Matilde Sorrentino to keep the memory of ‘Mamma Courage’ alive. It was sponsored by the Municipality of Torre Annunziata, involving various personalities, during which the story of Matilde was remembered and the importance of the work of anti-violence centres was stressed.
