A commitment that will become increasingly necessary in the months to come - says Ravasi - in which we will all be called to extraordinary efforts to get out of the complex situation in the which the coronavirus has catapulted us. We will have to face an economic emergency never seen before and for this reason we have taken action to allocate additional resources, around 100,000 euros, in favor of realities that will take care of the people in greatest difficulty ".
