“I am beyond honored to be part of this ambitious project with Unicef Italia. We have been collaborating and working as a family for six years now, united by the same desire and goal: to support children in need around the world. Our commitment, perseverance and efforts have shown us that by working together we can raise awareness and contribute to making a positive impact on this vital cause for children. I sincerely thank UNICEF Italia and all of you for being here tonight.“Luisa Panconesi, President of the Comitato Evento Capri UNICEF 2022.

Thanks to LUISAVIAROMA for once again being by our side. Every year, UNICEF faces more and more emergencies and works to ensure not only a peaceful present but also a better future for every child. This is a great challenge that we can only overcome thanks to the contribution of those who choose to get involved with us, supporting our work and donating. These events are precious as they help keep the spotlight on emergencies and situations that we cannot forget and support children in need. Thank you everyone. » Paolo Rozera, Executive Director, UNICEF Italia.

« When I started collaborating with UNICEF as a volunteer, I never thought it would become such a fundamental part of my daily life. After working with UNICEF for so many years around the world, I can say that they tirelessly carry out fundamental work in supporting children. I am increasingly proud to support this organization. Nowadays, to ensure that UNICEF is able to deal with emergencies around the world, everyone must take part. Thank you LuisaViaRoma and thanks to each of you for being here, with us, tonight.
