Cucine Popolari
Bolonia · Emilia-Romagna · Italy
Roberto Morgantini and Elvira Segreto used the money from their wedding gifts to open Bologna's first popular canteen, in the Bolognina district. Since 2014 the association Civibo has run four canteens in different neighbourhoods, where hundreds of people in difficulty eat every day and also find company. In 2024 they served more than 150,000 meals thanks to a large body of volunteers.
