The initiative launched by Monica, owner of an oven in Codogno, the municipality of Lodigiano where the first case of Coronavirus was found in Italy, and one of the 10 isolated centers in the red zone, is called "suspended spending".
The lady, who has the bakery in the San Biagio district, found herself with some fresh fresh bread at closing time on Monday . "So in order not to throw it away - he said - I stuffed it in sachets that I sealed well and that I put in a basket in front of the shop".
The following morning, with surprise, she realized that the gesture was appreciated, a signal that some are beginning to fail .
"At this point - he continued - I took a trolley that I was not using and where anyone, when going shopping in any supermarket, can put something like a pack of pasta, a box of peas or tuna ". When it closes in the evening, the trolley is in front of the oven entrance so that those who " need but prefer not to show it" can be served.
The same initiative a few days ago in the alleys of Naples with the solidarity 'panaro'.
