Donation Day at Il Fuligno, Sala Blu, Firenze on April 17, 2023! The day we officially give the funds to local charities raised from the income earned at our annual Christmas Bazaar. Always lovely to hear from these associations and learn more about their work. A joyous occasion!  Stop by and complete your Christmas shopping, all while helping the local community of Florence! View Details   Idanna Pucci will be talking about her book ‘The Lady of Sing Sing’. Wine, snacks and book signing will follow. WHERE: Il Conventino, Via Giano della Bella 20, Firenze WHEN: April 26, at 6:30pm COST: €15 (100% of proceeds will go towards AILO charities) In 1895 a 22 year old Italian immigrant is tried in New York City and convicted of murdering the man who promised eternal love, but then drugged and raped her. When Maria Barbella receives her sentence to die in the newly invented electric chair, Cora Slocomb di Brazza, an American heiress and social activist married to an Italian count and living in Italy, mobilizes Manhattan’s tabloid press and high society to save her. Courageously, she also launches the first national campaign against the death penalty. Yet, the powerful inventor Thomas Edison has aligned his forces against Cora and the immigrant girl. As the electric chair can be powered only with the AC current of his rival Westinghouse, the future of Edison’s DC direct current in America depends on Maria’s execution. AILO is proud to receive this Donor Award for its efforts raising money for the latest FAWCO Target Project, combating female genital mutilation. “We are very grateful for your club’s contribution to the Health Target project. The AILO Florence’s efforts are worth recognition and you will find your club’s logo and donation amount on the Club Donor Wall on the FAWCO Foundation website.
