Stronger Together: club employees gift Easter eggs to youngsters with autism and neuropsychological disorders

On Friday 18 April, as part of the club’s Stronger Together social and sustainability programme – which aims to offer constant support to the community and local area – the AS Roma family visited two facilities that help children and teenagers with autism spectrum disorder to once again gift them the yellow-and-red Easter eggs that were generously offered by ICAM.

Their first stop was at the La Scarpetta Centre in Trastevere, a public facility run by the Roma 1 Local Health Authority (ASL) which also works with AS Roma on other health promotion initiatives. The centre is a reference point for families of the municipality and helps people aged 0 to 18 with ADHD, neurodevelopmental, autism spectrum, neuromotor and emotional disorders.

After meeting with the children and teenagers and their families to gift them the Easter eggs, the group went to the Cooperativa Garibaldi in the Ardeatino district. This cooperative has an urban vegetable garden with a traditional restaurant run by 25 young boys and girls with autism spectrum disorders from the Giuseppe Garibaldi Agricultural Technical Institute. The club’s employees brought the yellow-and-red Easter eggs as gifts and joined the co-operative’s staff for a community lunch. This cooperative provides tangible opportunities to achieve inclusion, personal growth and employment.

AS Roma thus reasserts its commitment to this cause together with the institutions and confirms its constant support for the many actors from the third sector working every day to benefit the community.
