Mother's Day is celebrated in Italy on May 14. Motherhood is a point of reference for life without ifs and buts, a symbol of unconditional affection.

Mothers can adopt children at a distance or care for them in war or poverty zones. The role of the foster mother is a very important institution of help and support to guarantee the child the right to grow up in an environment that can meet his educational and emotional needs, with reference to personal and family characteristics and his specific situation of difficulty.
