We are in the Marche, municipality of Acquasanta. The earthquake has passed and the institutions of the territory have charged Valeria to coordinate some members of the association “Mulattiere di Acquasanta” to give a new image of the rebirth of the city and to highlight the desire and commitment to a new life of all citizens.
This is a very important social action so come with all your determination to help Valeria in this task and promote the great resilience of the people of this wonderful land.
