The Sassari Brigade took to the field to support the thirtieth National Food Drive Day, providing vehicles and personnel to transport the goods collected to collection points in Sardinia .
Army vehicles—particularly those from the Logistics Regiment and the Brigade's 45th "Reggio" Command and Tactical Support Unit—transported the products to storage centers, from where they will then be distributed to participating facilities.
The collaboration is part of the long-standing support that the "Sassarini" have offered to the initiative, founded in 1997 to raise public awareness of poverty and promote a simple yet meaningful gesture: donating part of one's groceries to those in need.
The numbers from last year's event speak for themselves: thanks also to the logistical efficiency achieved in Sardinia, one of the 22 regional offices that make up the Food Bank Network, approximately 150 tons of food were distributed to 135 participating charities (soup kitchens, communities for minors, solidarity banks, reception centers, etc.), which helped approximately 21,000 people in need .
