Over a year has passed since the flood, but the solidarity in favor of those realities that are still struggling for a difficult return to normality does not stop. On the occasion of the re-enactment of the Mille Miglia, the car competition held between 1927 and 1957, the Pro Forlì Historic-Artistic Committee, chaired by Gabriele Zelli, asked the Forlì artists Alvaro Lucchi and Davide Sarasini to create two pictorial works to be transferred onto a postcard . Through the two postcards, a memory of the event was left to those who converged on Piazza Saffi on 13 June 2023 to admire the historic cars taking part in the event. In particular, Davide Sarasini painted a car as it crosses the finish line of the city stage with two monuments of Forlì in the background: the gate of Schiavonia and the statue of Icarus. The figure of Ercole Baldini also appears in the work. This painting, accompanied by a contribution of 500 euros donated by the committee, was donated to Il Trenino, an educational group that offers services for children from 6 to 36 months in the offices in via Pelacano and via Ghibellina: both offices had been significantly damaged from the flood.
The ceremony for the delivery of the amount of 250 euros per student (20 thousand in total) for the scholarships that the Forlì committee of the Ravenna, Forlì and Imola BCC wanted to provide for students residing in Forlì also took place in recent weeks. enrolled in high schools whose homes have suffered significant damage. Out of 96 students included in the ranking, 80 were able to benefit from the scholarship.
A delegation from the Avis Forlì Running Group, led by president Lorenzo Gemma, delivered to the Romiti neighborhood committee, represented by Stefano Valmori, the technological material which was possible to purchase thanks to the donations made by the participants in the charity event ‘CorriAMO i Romiti ‘, which took place last December. The proceeds will be used to purchase a multimedia kit for video projections: computer, video projector, audio system and 150-inch screen/screen for the multipurpose room, destroyed in the disaster.
