A special birthday: Gian Marco celebrates his 50th birthday with solidarity

"Valter Baldaccini said that solidarity does not exist without concrete work and compassion, so for my fiftieth birthday I decided to celebrate in the name of peace and friendship".

Gian Marco is a dear friend of the Valter Baldaccini Foundation and UMBRAGROUP employee. With this thought in mind, Gian Marco Masciotti promoted a fundraiser among relatives, friends and colleagues during his birthday celebrations. He raised a large amount of money thanks to many generous people. Excited and gratified, Gian Marco has decided to distribute the sum among the organizations and causes that are dearest to him, including the Valter Baldaccini Foundation and its solidarity projects in support of people in difficulty.

“The inspiration for this initiative came to me from a colleague who had promoted a fundraiser for the Foundation's projects during an event involving her family. I too hope to be an example for others, a stimulus to trigger many virtuous cycles of solidarity".

Heartfelt thanks Gian Marco for your beautiful gesture and best wishes from the whole Foundation!
