A concrete help to small enterprises of Arquata del Tronto, Accumoli and Amatrice, the municipalities of Central Italy that had to count dead in the earthquake of three years ago, was deliverded last september in front of all the local authorities.
The La Stampa-Specchio dei tempi Foundation, thanks to the economic contribution of Reale Mutua and Reale Immobili, was able to select eleven small local companies, in the sectors of agriculture, commerce and craftmanships.
The ceremony took place in the school complex of Arquata del Tronto, rebuilt by the Foundation after the earthquake. Among the "winners" there are farmers, beekeepers, geese and pig farmers, butchers, artisans, tourism operators. Small activities that represent the soul of a territory that tries to recover from the disaster of the earthquake.
There are over 100,000 euros available for these small businesses. These funds represent the solidarity of some building companies that have carried out interventions for Reale Immobili which, in turn, has then doubled the sum collected.
Specchio dei tempi continues to support Arquata del Tronto and it's still possible to continue funding our project: there is still a lot of work to do!
