From 4 to 13 October 2024, Trieste will host the 56th edition of the Barcolana, the sailing regatta that takes place in the Gulf of our city and brings together over 2,000 boats from all over the world. Crews of professionals and enthusiasts compete side by side, creating a unique event in the panorama of global nautical competitions.
Donk Humanitarian Medicine odv will take part in Barcolana’s Charity Program, which features Non-Profit Organisations and sees crews, participants and supporters of the regatta also taking part in a solidarity race: raising funds for a cause dear to them.
Our association’s initiative entitled ‘Unfurl the sails with Donky and Street Medicine’, published on the Rete del Dono website, aims to support the Right to Health of the most fragile and Street Medicine with Donky, the mobile clinic purchased and set up to enable our volunteer doctors and nurses to meet the medical needs of those who have difficulty accessing the National Health Service and help as many people as possible.
