Massacre of Mottarone, 30 thousand euros collected during the Giro handed over to little Eitan

A sober ceremony, but which goes beyond the symbolic value of a wound still open for the hearts of the relatives of the victims and for a still astonished territory, which has lost one of its symbols. In Verbania, this morning, at the park of Villa Giulia, Gianni Bugno, president of the world association of professional cyclists (CPA), handed over to the Chief Rabbi of Turin Ariel Di Porto the funds raised by the riders during the Giro d’Italia for Eitan , the only little one who survived the massacre of the Mottarone cable car. “The prizes collected by professional cyclists in the 19th stage of the pink race, about 30 thousand euros, represent a small but heartfelt contribution that the whole group wanted to allocate to this child, whom life has faced an unexpected and very hard climb . The riders are sensitive to what is happening around them, as evidenced by their decision to be close to the victims of the floods that hit the Liège region during the Tour de Wallonie. They are athletes of the highest level, but also mothers, fathers, children committed to making their club the best possible “commented Bugno during the ceremony attended by Giorgio Orrù, vicar of the Prefect of Verbania, the mayors of Verbania Silvia Marchionini, of Stresa Marcella Severino, of Baveno Alessandro Monti and the councilor for sport of Verbania Patrich Rabaini.
