An always special event stirring unique and invaluable emotions
One of the most heartfelt and sincere moments of the year, words simply do not suffice when describing the bundle of emotions evoked by the the customary Christmas visit at the ASST Papa Giovanni XXIII pediatric wards. The glimmers of hope, joy, and happiness in the eyes of the hospitalized children add up to an unfathomable yet priceless experience... In short, bringing a smile to a child makes everything all the more meaningful and beautiful.
As such, we wish to bide our time and acknowledge all the volunteers who dedicate their time and efforts within the hospitals.
