A Caravan of Solidarity for MCCH in Italy

A Caravan of Solidarity for MCCH in Italy

In view of the international interest in the humanitarian crisis in Greece, the Metropolitan Community Clinic at Helliniko has continued its effort to inform people abroad of the impact of this crisis on ordinary citizens.  The Italian feminist organization “Donne nella Crisi”, (women in crisis), together with other Italian organizations of solidarity approached us and we gave them concrete examples of what happens to the uninsured in our country.  These organizations decided to launch a “Caravan of Solidarity” for Greece. 

 This caravan will journey throughout Italy (from the north to the south).  At the various stops, there will be many events such as debates, photo exhibits, and showing videos of our clinic and our work here.  The cities that will participate are:

22/10 VERONA 
25/10 BRESCIA and ROVATO 
26-27/10 RHO and CORNAREDO 
28/10 MILANO 
29/10 LODI 
5/11 BOLOGNA 
6/11 ROMA 
7/11 SALERNO 
8/11 COSENZA and VIBO 
9/11 BARI 
10/11 LECCE 
11/11 FIRENZE 
12/11 LIVORNO 
13/11 MANTOVA 
14/11 TORINO 
15/11 COMO 
20/11 PADOVA

The purpose of the Caravan of Solidarity is to broadcast all over Italy what is going on in Greece.  Another reason is to collect supplies for our patients.  It will send a forceful message to the Greek government, but also to the Troika (the European Union, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund).  The message is HUMAN BEINGS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAT MONEY!

We will keep updated on the progress of the “Caravan” as is proceeds on its course.
