United by the red and white colors and now by the solidarity Moncalvo Calcio and the Palio Committee. Thus the ball in Valletta not only swells the net in Third Category matches but also scores in charity, with an assist to the Ukrainian population. Green rectangle usually an occasion for fun and sport, in the last internal match of the first team saw the company, born in 2019 and chaired by Manuel Boschdevolve the entire proceeds to the solidarity campaigns in the lands affected by the war. Decision taken with the Palio di Moncalvo Committee, led by the rector Raffaele Mazzella, who collaborates with the ticket office. With an entrance ticket of 2 euros and just over a hundred spectators it was possible to collect the sum of 300 euros already donated by bank transfer to the Asti Committee of the Cri (president Stefano Robino).
«We know well that it is a drop, a small help, modest but concrete, with even a symbolic value – comments President Bosco – We have decided to combine the collection of a match, an opportunity for a pleasant moment of leisure, with the offer for those who suddenly found themselves in difficulty in satisfying the most elementary needs. We distance ourselves from all forms of hypocrisy and exploitation around this story: we condemn the war and we are close to anyone who is innocent victim. Personally, I believe that a child who can no longer play sports is a defeat for the whole of society, and this unfortunately does not happen only in Ukraine today ».
Moncalvo Calcio is not new to solidarity actions, for example by supporting the local delegation of the Cystic Fibrosis Research Foundation. «A simple but sincere gesture of solidarity, fruit of the spontaneous adhesion by all the players and response from the public. In this way, charity becomes a moment of cohesion “explains the vice president Enrico Bacchiella from the management who concludes:” It is the gesture that counts. It is nice to see that a sporting reality, even if small and in its infancy, has become aware of such a serious and big problem ». –
