Ferrari supports the Ugo Foscolo school in Taormina, Sicily
A special anniversary for a special cause: #ferrari maintains its commitment to the next generation’s education with a donation of funds raised during an auction held at the 10th anniversary of the Cavalcade in Sicily, September 2021.
The proceeds of the auction, held at the Ancient Theatre of #taormina after a five-day #event that took Ferrari owners to some of the island’s most enchanting places, will go to #educational projects selected by Taormina’s municipal council.
Ferrari provided a host of memorabilia and exclusive experiences for the auction, and the bids made by its international clientele will fund the renovation of the Istituto Comprensivo 1 Ugo Foscolo School. A teaching lab will also be created in this building, restoring and corverting a former house, in order to serve the town’s primary and middle schools.
In addition, “Ferrari Scholarships” will be established to help a number of students – residents of #taormina – to proceed with higher education and to access private teaching in music and the arts, according to a regulation that will be issued by the same Municipality.
“Sicily was my first Cavalcade, and it was a wonderful experience I’ll always have with me,” said Benedetto Vigna, CEO of #ferrari. “Ferrari has always supported education, and I’m glad that such a significant #event with a place in the heart of the #ferrari community is connected with this fundamental cause. Encouraging young people and accompanying their #educational development is the best way we can repay the warm welcome we received in this wonderful region.”
Cavalcade is a unique invitation-only annual #event for #ferrari customers and collectors from all over the world. Cavalcade Sicilia was the first to have brought both classic and modern Ferraris together in a single #event. This enabled more than 90 crews to discover the beauty of the island, starting from #taormina and passing through historic cities such as Catania, Ortigia, Messina, Noto and Ragusa.
