My first 3 years as volunteer in Italian Red Cross

Hello boys and girls,

three years ago is started a big travel for me called "Red Cross".

10 December 2016 - 10 December 2019

When I was a child I watched on television those people who brought help to disaster sites. I had only one thing in mind, I would have liked to go and help those people and bring some joy and joy. For years I looked for a way to do it but I couldn't find it until a friend of mine talked to me about the Red Cross and so I caught the ball and tried. 

To realize my dream I tried to train myself as much as I could but today I believe that you can never learn enough and you are never prepared enough. I believed from the beginning of my training in the 7 principles that unite all the Red Cross volunteers in the world, the most beautiful thing I saw in every service and how we all smile, and today this is a rare thing. If you can do something that makes you smile and feel good. Today is the moment, don't let others do what you could have done but didn't want to do. 

This is what accompanies me every day as a volunteer. Probably my dream will never come true but I am happy anyway with what I have done up until now only pushed by the spirit of helping and not earning and making money on it. To me and to all my traveling companions, near and far, I send my best wishes for this meeting achieved together "Our first 3 years in the Italian Red Cross"

IF THE MAN IS NOT ABLE TO LOVE HIS BROTHERS, HE IS LOST

EmerCampania2019

Hi boys and girl, today I'll talk about one of my last experiences done this year "Emercampania2019", a national red cross camp to learn about managment of Emergency Situations. I am a volunteer of Italian Red Cross and Yesterday 5 of December was the Mondial day of Volunteers so i thinked to post one of my video made for this occasion.

It has now been a few days since my experience at the emerCampania2019, it has been an experience in the intense and exciting emergency that has allowed me to put myself to the test as a voluntary emergency operation. It was not easy to compare myself with what it means to "operate in an emergency" but the desire to learn has been great, understanding the emergency is complicated and it is fundamental "to recognize in those who have more experience than you a guide, to trust yourself sometimes to directives that not even you understand but above all rely on your colleagues, in an emergency they become your family and nobody better than them can understand what you are feeling. When working in an emergency even volunteers experience it on their own skin. " Obviously an exercise is not reality but it allows you to grow and mature; the futility on which our society is based show themselves for what they are. People need to be considered human beings, not just in an emergency, but often our society forgets it. I am proud to be part of an association that is always everywhereforeveryone. I take this opportunity to thank President Teresa Natale who allowed me to have this experience, the Italian Red Cross Regional Committee for Campania who with dedication organized this event in Cercola (in particular the DRAE Salvatore Tommy Ruocco, the coordinator Davide Scognamiglio, Lello De Falco and all SOR), the SON who believed in the Campania, the Red Cross Emergency Area managers but most of all my adventure companions from all over Italy (and not) who put up with me and supported me in these 5 days, without them this experience would not have been the same.
