    Stronger Together: Mancini, Hummels and club employees dedicate a day of volunteering to support families in need in Tor Tre Teste


    A family that never leaves anyone behind. Ever. This is the essence of AS Roma for its people: substance and a sense of belonging, always.

    Ahead of Christmas, the great Giallorossi family – headed up by Gianluca Mancini, Mats Hummels, representatives from the youth sector and Chief Football Operating Officer Maurizio Lombardo – engaged its supporters to help vulnerable groups in the city. Together with some of the club’s partners, they mobilised to provide goods and services to people in need in the Rome suburbs.

    The solidarity event, part of AS Roma’s permanent employee Stronger Together volunteering programme took place on 10 December in the Tor Tre Teste neighbourhood at the Padre Claudio Santoro Reception Centre, managed by the Social Cooperative Ambiente e Lavoro. The facility accommodates up to 80 people experiencing marginalisation and psychosocial difficulties, including the homeless, migrants in transit, refugees, asylum seekers and holders of humanitarian protection.

    The initiative involved healthcare personnel from Policlinico Universitario Campus Bio-Medico – the Official Medical Partner of AS Roma – which donated an examination bed, two screens, a medical trolley and two complete medical kits for general practice visits to inaugurate a permanent health point. This facility will remain open to all guests of the centre and to individuals living on the margins of Rome’s Municipio V who are unable to access the National Health System. The club also contributed to the setting-up of the facility by donating some furnishings.

    The health centre – inaugurated by the CEO and General Director of the Campus Bio-Medico University Hospital Foundation, Paolo Sormani – began operating immediately, with hospital staff offering their services to the Centre's guests. They provided a series of free cardiological examinations including electrocardiograms.

    In addition, thanks to the generosity and collaboration of AS Roma’s partners and licensees, such as La Molisana, Q8, Deco supermarkets and Icam, club employees distributed food and comfort items to help ensure that the centre’s guests could celebrate Christmas with dignity.

    The Stronger Together event, brightened by the presence of actor and passionate Roma fan Max Giusti, was also attended by the President of the Capitoline Assembly Svetlana Celli, Municipio V President Mauro Caliste, Lazio Third Sector Forum and Spokesperson Francesca Danese.

    This is yet another powerful example of how sport can unite businesses, artists, institutions and citizens in a collective effort to promote solidarity and social inclusion for at-risk members of the local populations, whose numbers are on the rise.
