Derthona alongside the youngest: certificates of courage for those who get vaccinated
A new social initiative created by Derthona Basket with the Tortona community, in collaboration with the Novi Ligure-Tortona district of ASL AL. The start of the vaccination process by the city's children was welcomed with interest by the company, which decided to take action to "reward" the younger, who with courage and determination, decided to undergo the anti-Covid-19 vaccination. To do this, Derthona has created a special certificate of courage which is given to the children who can personalize it by entering their name and keep it as a souvenir.
ʺIn these years of Covid-19, swabs and vaccines, the Derthona Basket players went to the ASL located in the Tortona District. The vaccination process has also begun for the youngest: for this occasion this collaboration with the Club was born through the delivery of certificates of courage with photos of the Lions – the words of Pia Camagna, member of the Club's healthcare staff -. The initiative was shared with the District Director, doctors and nurses and was appreciated by the children. The activity of Derthona Basket is not limited to the playing field, but also extends to the territory by disseminating initiatives aimed at the well-being of the population and the community..
ʺIt is clear that public figures, such as athletes, can convey positive messages – the comment of Orazio Barresi, Director of the Novi Ligure-Tortona Health District of the Tortona ASL - as well as the fact that vaccinations can minimize the discomfort brought by diseases. We are therefore happy with this collaboration with Bertram Derthona, with the hope that this initiative can be followed by others..
