Story
As the death toll of the earthquake that hit central Italy on 24th August is slowly rising, we see on the news how the people that survived but lost their homes have been put up in tent camps. At the moment they have all the basic necessities, but it doesn't take a lot of imagination to realize what the many difficulties are that they have to face in the months and years ahead: finding again a daily rhythm, the approaching winter, dealing with the loss of so many friends and loves ones, bureaucratic matters connected to (hopefully) rebuilding their homes, etc.
We at St Andrew's Church in Rome, Italy, are holding a fundraise campaign for the victims of the earthquake. We would like to involve not only our local church community, but the whole of the Church of Scotland.
You are invited to make a donation to show your solidarity with those who lost everything.
At the end of September, the money will be sent to the Italian Red Cross.
For more information, contact Inge Weustink, Session Clerk of St Andrew's Church Rome, by means of below form.

8 years agoDear all, Thank you very much for donating so generously for the victims of the earthquake in Central Italy. Through the JustGiving platform we raised 632,23 euros. Through other channels (my church in Rome and the Scots churches in Brussels and Malta and several donations from friends) we raised some nice sums as well. Our efforts have enabled us to send 2665,27 euros to the Italian Red Cross this week. Thank you again! Best regards, Inge Weustink
