A.I.L. PROJECT IN OUR SCHOOL

Our school, Liceo “Regina Margherita” has been an AIL supporter since school year 2004/2005.

AIL peer educators made us, as peer volunteers, aware of voluntary work and blood diseases during a special course.

Peer students organized a fund-raising: an Easter egg sale in our school or at AIL stands.
