Live Charity Trapani
LIVE CHARITY | Onlus, a non-profit organization, was established in Monza in June 2008 with the aim of raising funds to support important projects. On one hand, the “ITALIA Cardioprotetta - Cuore Batticuore” Project, through which life-saving devices — Defibrillators (or AEDs) — are donated to Sports Centers, Schools, Sports Associations, Municipalities, and today a focal point of the Association, with over 250 devices delivered; and on the other hand, additional projects with different purposes and objectives (for example, the donation of clothing, shoes, and sleeping bags for the homeless in Milan, for immigrants arriving in Sicily at the port of Trapani, or for immigrants hosted at the Identification and Expulsion Center – C.I.E. – in Milo, also in Trapani, as well as individual aid to support people with disabilities, or the donation of a bed-scale in Umbria to the Pediatric Oncohematology Department of the Committee for Life “Daniele Chianelli” in Perugia).
Today, LIVE Charity is active throughout Italy and has a single operational office in Sicily, in Trapani, having moved its historic headquarters from Monza/Lombardy to this new territory.
In September, Live Charity, together with Leonardo Bonucci, received the keys to two multi-purpose sports fields on September 23rd in Trapani. Both already have a five-a-side football pitch installed (the first covering a total area of 2,500 m², the second about 6,500 m²).
Because football is not only about play and passion, but also about education, prevention, and community. This project was created to offer opportunities to those who need them most: safe spaces where they can grow, learn respect for rules, and feel part of a team. LIVE Charity won the tender of the Municipality of Trapani for the redevelopment of the two fields: the funds will be used for all structural improvements and also for the future installation of a Beach Volleyball court, 3vs3 Basketball, and Volleyball.
