The stylist Giorgio Armani has decided to donate 1 million and 250 thousand euros to the Luigi Sacco, San Raffaele and Milan Cancer Institute hospitals, to the Spallanzani Institute in Rome in support of the Civil Protection activity.

Chiara Ferragni and Fedez, through a personal donation of € 100,000 , also launch a campaign to support fundraising for the creation of new beds in the intensive care unit of the San Raffaele Hospital in Milan , part of the San Donato Group, currently strictly necessary and indispensable to face the health emergency of Coronavirus and to provide each patient with the free medical care they urgently need. The initiative - let the couple know - realized with the collaboration of prof. Alberto Zangrillo, chief of cardiovascular intensive care and general of the San Raffaele hospital in Milan, will go to support intensive care, a highly specialized environment for seriously ill patients. The sick with respiratory failure caused by the ongoing epidemic occupy these departments which are highly insufficient to face the crisis. An ICU bed costs significantly more than a normal hospital bed. A monitor is required that detects the patient's vital functions, a ventilator that assists the patient's breathing and a series of infusion pumps for liquids and drugs.

The aim of Chiara Ferragni and Fedez is to encourage anyone to give concrete help to all the staff of the San Raffaele Hospital in Milan, by connecting directly to the link https://www.gofundme.com/f/coronavirus-terapia-intensiva . By directly accessing the campaign, it will be possible to give a minimum donation of & euro 5 (the platform has no commissions, but during the donation phase the donor can leave an optional tip), the total funds raised will be directly donated to the hospital for strengthening the therapy intensive. "We hope that this initiative of ours will raise awareness among people in Italy and abroad about the Coronavirus emergency in which we are all involved" explain Chiara Ferragni and Fedez. "It is a concrete contribution that we greatly appreciate and which we hope will be an example for many. We continue our battle, which we will win, against this extraordinary emergency, where intensive care is the only healing option for the most serious patients," said the prof. Alberto Zangrillo, chief of cardiovascular intensive care and general of the San Raffaele hospital in Milan.
