Charity evening in honor of the association Bambini Cardiopatici nel Mondo of the cardiac surgeon A. Frigiola

A special evening dedicated to the Vicenza cardiac surgeon Alessandro Frigiola who for decades has operated on the hearts of children with heart disease all over the world, saving thousands of lives.

In the splendid setting of the Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza, on Tuesday 13 September from 7:30 pm, an honor will be awarded to Dr. Frigiola and, to follow, a collection of contributions will be promoted to finance an important international project, of the Association Bambini Cardiopatici nel Mondo, which will be announced during the event.

“Frigiola is a global point of reference for cardiac surgery, but above all he is a generous person, who has dedicated his entire life to children with heart disease all over the world. It is an honor for us as citizens of Vicenza to be able to organize this evening that is a just recognition for everything that our fellow citizen Frigiola has done in his career as a doctor, but it is also an opportunity to offer a concrete contribution to support the activity of the association Bambini Cardiopatici nel Mondo and help save many children’s lives in the world” commented the signatories of the invitation to the evening, Gianpietro Bergamin and Luca Biasiolo for Bibetech, Alessandro Belluscio for Belluscio Assicurazioni and Daniele Muha for Several Insurance Broker.

“It is a source of great pride for me to receive such an important recognition, in my hometown, in the Teatro Olimpico which is a symbol of Vicenza in Italy and in the world – says Alessandro Frigiola -. But I am even happier because during the evening an international project will be announced that the Associazione Bambini Cardiopatici has been working on for a long time and which has the aim of making a great leap in quality in cardiac surgery in the poorest countries in the world. Thanks to the organizers of the evening, to the entrepreneurs of Vicenza, to the municipal administration and to all those who have generously committed and will commit to supporting our project”.

The event will begin at 7:30 pm with the awarding of the honor to Dr. Alessandro Frigiola and will continue with the concert of the “Lorenzo Da Ponte” Orchestra conducted by maestro Roberto Zarpellon.

Participation is by invitation and the proceeds will be entirely donated to the project promoted by the Associazione Bambini Cardiopatici nel Mondo.
