15 November 2019The Department of Civil Protection, thanks to the protocol with the fixed and mobile telephone operators, activated the solidarity number 45500 from November 15 and for a period of 30 days in support of the city of Venice.

Through the telephone operators that have joined the initiative, it will be possible to donate two euros by sending a text message in solidarity or making a call from a landline to 45500.

The funds raised will be transferred by the operators, without any charge, to the Department of Civil Protection. The destination of the funds raised will subsequently be assessed by the specially established Guarantor Committee.
