Antonio's restart was possible thanks to you

“Mine could be anyone's story. When you don't have references and don't understand the importance of work, it's easy to take the wrong path. And I have made many mistakes in my life”.

Antonio today is a smiling and serene man. Looking at him, you can’t imagine all the pain he went through as a child and all the difficulties that came with the choices he made. A few years ago he told us his story filled with departures and returns, of problems with the justice system and of taking the wrong paths in an attempt to rebuild a life.

Today Antonio really has a new life. Thanks to the socio-educational project “Family and work” Antonio found work on the farm. By doing this work, he discovered the value of caring for the land and, above all, caring for himself. It also provided him the capacity to recover a relationship with his children.

I had nothing, but now I can do it. My life has really changed and now I appreciate the value of so many little things that I didn't care about before”.

All this was possible thanks to the contribution of our donors, which allowed many people in the area to have an opportunity for redemption.

Please support Antonio and many others who have lost their jobs and give them an opportunity.

Donate now to the Valter Baldaccini Foundation.

Each donation is a precious resource. Thank you so much.
