Faenza –
Virtus Segafredo Bologna, visited Faenza’s Mita Park this afternoon to offer support and closeness at a difficult time.
Representing the virtussini colors were Daniel Hackett, Alessandra Orsili, Francesca Pasa and some coaches from the youth sector (Sebastiano Pedrazzani, Davide Moro, Andrea Mazzarini and Chiara Renda). Also present was the general manager of the Black Vs Paolo Ronci .
Over the course of the afternoon, many photos and autographs were asked for by the young Faentines, playing together and spending a few hours in their company, with the aim of bringing serenity and joy.
These are the words of General Manager Paolo Ronci: “As a resident of Faenza, I experienced this flood firsthand. Today we came with Daniel Hackett, Francesca Pasa and Alessandra Orsili, along with the youth sector. We are extremely happy to be here at the invitation of the civil defense psychologists to offer a few moments of happiness and lightheartedness for these kids.
As a club and ownership we are always very attentive to social initiatives because Virtus Segafredo Bologna represents the expression of the city and the territory, especially in situations like this, so we are extremely proud to bring our players and coaches.
The initiative was born in collaboration with the psychologists of the civil protection and the mayor of Faenza, Massimo Isola, and we were very happy to take part in this project, accepting this invitation to bring a few hours of light-heartedness and cheerfulness to these kids, with our contribution: our will was to bring a positive thought after the events of these days.
The region is our partner so we will try to do what we can in the future as well, thanks to the work done with Governor Stefano Bonaccini, so anything Virtus Segafredo can do will be done: on Sunday, for example, on the occasion of Game 1 of the semifinal against Tortona, we will have a jersey made in collaboration with Emilia Romagna and Macron, the proceeds of which will go to support these areas.”
Virtus Segafredo Bologna has undertaken divere initiatives in favor of those affected such as the possibility of purchasing the T-shirt in collaboration with Macron and Emilia Romagna, which can be purchased at the arena as well as part of the proceeds from Game 1 against Faenza will be earmarked to support the areas affected by the flooding. Tickets for the game will be available for purchase at this link.
Forza Emilia Romagna, Virtus Segafredo Bologna is with you!
