On Saturday, February 21st, we enjoyed a wonderful evening of sharing between our Association, represented by its director, Enrica Legname, and the Municipal Council of Castelraimondo, in the Marche region.
The meeting was the brainchild of Carmen Lavinia Negulescu, the mother of a child with heart disease and deeply connected to our association and our “Ospedale del Cuore.”
Her desire to transform a personal experience into an opportunity for many gave rise to a genuine moment of discussion and dialogue.
It was a valuable evening, not only for sharing what we do every day alongside the families of children with heart disease, but above all for building new connections, strengthening collaborations, and laying the foundations for concrete projects.


We shared ideas, perspectives, and common goals, with the desire to create an increasingly strong network in the area,

capable of supporting families who, like Carmen, are forced to travel many kilometers from home to ensure care and hope for their children.


We sincerely thank Mayor Patrizio Leonelli, Councilor Ilenia Citadini, and Regional Councilor Renzo Marinelli for their attention and interest.


“Let’s keep building our network — the greatest opportunities come from unity.”

Two curious eyes and two little hands racing across the pages of a picture book.
Laughter breaks the silence in the corridors of the Pediatric Ward — where not long ago, only tears could be heard.

This is one of our volunteers’ superpowers: turning fear into smiles, even if just for a little while,
through play, storytelling, and the comfort of a caring presence.

Every day, we bring lightness where there is worry,
imagination where there is uncertainty,
and warmth where courage is needed most.

Today we want to celebrate this day with a gift that was given to us in recent days.

A wonderful family who were hosted in the shelters last year returned to check on little Nadia.
We were so happy to be able to hug them again, seeing with such joy that the little girl, now approaching her first birthday, has grown so much.

The parents, along with their entire family, decided to donate a little food to the families staying in the shelter.
They haven’t forgotten the days spent in the shelter, awaiting the birth of their little girl, and wanted to give the parents there a little help.

This is also friendship: caring for one another, helping each other in their suffering, and we, as an association, are happy to be part of all this.
Every gesture makes a difference.
