The Friends of the Bonsai Club donate a Work Grant

The entire € 1.545 collected by the Friends of Bonsai Club at their “Autumn Bonsai and Solidarity” lunch on November 24th will be donated to the Family and Work project.

A beautiful initiative that combined the art of bonsai care with the need to care for those in our area who are in difficult situations. This precious donation will become a work grant, a concrete opportunity for a family in the Family and Work project, which we have been overseeing for two years together with the Foligno Diocese Caritas.

The Friends of Bonsai Club is an important organization in San Giovanni Profiamma. Since 2017, it has brought together 24 members with a passion for Bonsai. The club is part of the Union of Italian Bonsaists and is the first organization in Central Italy to host the Bonsai Creative School Academy. It organizes courses for beginners, exhibitions, and shows. 

Many thanks to President Giovanni Castelli and to club members who came to the Foundation to give us this precious gift. We hope this is only the first of many joint initiatives!
