How you can support us

Free donations

Every fresh pasta workshop in pediatric wards is offered free of charge to the hospitals that welcome us.
Behind every smile are natural ingredients, quality tools, volunteer training, logistics, care and presence.

The average annual cost of keeping a lab running is more than 25,000.
Starting it is magic, but ensuring continuity is the real challenge we face each year.
