The certificates of honor of “Standard of the Republic” were delivered yesterday morning (13 May) at the Quirinale by the President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella. As we wrote at this link, among the new “standard bearers” also three very young people from the province of Ravenna, for their exploits during the flood period.
«A great honor for our entire community – commented the President of the Province Michele de Pascale -. Thank you President for recognizing the fundamental contribution of all these boys and girls at a time of great need for our community. The young people of Romagna (and not only) have shown great generosity, passion and sense of responsibility, making themselves available to those who needed help, with technology, head, heart, arms and shovel”.
Here is a summary of the Ravennate award winners and the reasons:
- Guido Betti, 31/10/2005, resident in Ravenna. For the energy and innovative vision with which he contributed to the creation of an IT platform, which made it possible to organize more than 6 thousand volunteers in rescue operations for the population affected by the flood in Emilia Romagna.
- Letizia Galletti, 25/7/2004, resident in Lugo. For having brought relief with his music to many people forced to abandon their homes following the recent flood in Emilia Romagna.
- Matteo Violani, 27/4/2006, resident in Faenza. For the volunteer service provided during the flood that hit his city. His commitment constitutes an example of active citizenship and symbolizes the resilience of an entire community.
