President, Bambino Ges\u00f9 Hospital<\/strong>
The child mistook him for Santa Claus because he was a man dressed in white who came and brought little presents to the children who were sick.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
President, Bambino Ges\u00f9 Hospital<\/strong>
Paul VI made a large donation to the hospital, a donation from the Palidoro.
It is another hospital near a city right outside of Rome. It is a large children's hospital that is part of the Bambino Ges\u00f9 system.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
President, Bambino Ges\u00f9 Hospital<\/strong>
His last visit was very emotional. I indirectly witnessed it because I was not the president of the Bambino Ges\u00f9 at the time, when the Ukrainian children came to us in 2022. During that visit, the Pope expressed his deep concern for a very vulnerable part of society. The Bambino Ges\u00f9 is always committed to life. So we hosted all these children and there were many of them and it was really important. At that moment, the Holy Father showed us that he supports us.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
