Yesterday the first bell rang again at Arquata del Tronto, in the school that we managed to build thanks to your help. The children now attend lessons in an anti-seismic and eco-friendly, fully wired building that is now used as a model for new constructions. “This space is able to guarantee that all the rules of social distancing, implemented due to the Covid-19 emergency, can be followed” explains Mr Ermano, an elementary school teacher that is eager to get back in class: “I am thrilled to start my lessons again, and so are my students”. The complex, which also includes the gym, built by Specchio dei tempi, includes up to 60 children: inclusive of kindergarten, elementary and middle school students.
To help the victims of the earthquake we have already raised over 3 million of euros, but our commitment doesn’t stop here. We are also supporting the families with a check equal to 2000 euros for every newborn, and the enterprises that are struggling to get back on track.
After 4 years from the tragic event, Specchio dei tempi stands beside Arquata and keeps supporting her population.
THANK YOU!
