Since the start of the Coronavirus emergency the organization has worked tirelessly by donating equipment urgently required in hospital intensive care units and sending specialized volunteers to support nurses and doctors who are fighting every day with a courage that comes from the heart.

Thanks to the Foundation's efforts, an additional intensive care unit with 16 places has already opened at the Polyclinic of Milan and another ward with 30 beds is under construction at the Sacco Hospital in Milan.
Equipment (respirators, ventilators, beds, monitors, ultrasounds, mobile radiography equipment) has been donated to hospitals throughout Italy including:

San Giuseppe Hospital in Milan
Papa Giovanni XXIII Hospital in Bergamo
Treviglio Hospital (Bergamo)
Civil hospital of Brescia
Verbania Hospital
Gemelli Hospital in Rome
Spallanzani Hospital in Rome
Cardarelli hospital in Naples
Syracuse hospital

In addition to sending ICU equipment and volunteer health workers, the Foundation team is delivering drugs, babycare products, 30,000 masks and disinfectant gels and other basic necessities to communities for children in difficult situations and soup kitchens for the poor.
