On Sunday 8 November, the Unicoop members\u2019 section in Castelfiorentino is organising a lunch at the Caritas canteen in Santa Maria della Marca (Piazza Grandi), with the aim of raising funds for the young people at the San Martino Family Home and the \u2018Youth\u2019 helpdesk at the Lilith Women\u2019s Support Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This lunch, therefore, much like other initiatives previously organised by the Unicoop members\u2019 branch, goes far beyond a simple social gathering. It represents a way of reinforcing the idea of a community that looks after its young people, particularly those in difficulty, by organising activities, experiences and projects designed to alleviate their hardship and promote their wellbeing and personal development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEvery year, as the Castelfiorentino branch of the co-operative,\u201d notes the Chair, Giancarla Armano, \u201cwe organise a charity lunch, with all proceeds going towards positive initiatives in the local area. This year, we are focusing on young people who need extra support to face the future, and the proceeds will go to organisations working consistently and diligently in the local area to provide them with the tools they need to cope with life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initiative is sponsored by Castelfiorentino Town Council<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAll residents are invited to take part in this initiative,\u201d emphasises Federica Parisi, Councillor for Social and Health Policies, \u201cwhere solidarity blends with the pleasure of getting together, spending a few hours in good company, and where the conviviality of a lunch is linked to the awareness of doing good. It is also on occasions such as this that a community is strengthened, by investing in the social fabric, in interpersonal relationships and in the future of our young people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cost of the lunch is \u20ac22.00 (adults) and \u20ac12.00 (children up to 12 years old) and includes a menu consisting of rigatoni alla Norcina, a bean stew with polenta made from yellow cornmeal and crispy black cabbage, peposo alla castellana, cantuccini and vin santo, coffee and drinks. For information and bookings (lunch payment required at the time of booking), please contact Giancarla on +39 339 410 0576 or Giovanni on +39 331 930 3075.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"730\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop-730x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12693\" srcset=\"https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop-730x1024.jpg 730w, https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop-768x1078.jpg 768w, https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop-1094x1536.jpg 1094w, https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop-370x519.jpg 370w, https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop-760x1067.jpg 760w, https:\/\/visitcastelfiorentino.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/locandinasocicoop.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday 8 November 2026 (1.00 pm) at Caritas in Santa Maria della Marca: a fundraiserto benefit the San Martino Family Home and the \u2018Youth\u2019 helpdesk at the Lilith Women\u2019s Support&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":75,"featured_media":12695,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[77,82,76],"tags":[119,727,729,728],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.7 -
