A GREEN AND CARING CHRISTMAS FOR THE IRIS CERAMICA GROUP FAMILIES

Environmental protection and solidarity are the guiding values of the Fondazione Iris Ceramica Group activities, and also inspired the traditional Christmas party for the employees of the Group and their families, hosted in the showroom in Castellarano where they met the Associations, Charities and Non-Profit Organisations that the Foundation supports.

A GREEN AND CARING CHRISTMAS FOR THE IRIS CERAMICA GROUP FAMILIES

For the traditional Christmas greetings, Iris Ceramica Group organised a morning of solidarity, with a packed programme of meetings for the employees and their families and activities for the children.

The special guests of the day were the main Associations that Fondazione Iris Ceramica Group supports through concrete actions.
Sea Shepherd and the crew of the vessel Conrad were the focus of a photographic exhibition of the works done in Operation SISO 2021, active in the Mediterranean Sea to protect the ecosystem of the Aeolian Islands archipelago from illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.

Action Aid, Save the Children and Caritas Diocesana Modenese, accompanied by the journalist and expert in sustainability and environmental communication Tessa Gelisio, told the Iris Ceramica Group families about the developments in their charity activities, defending human rights, children and education to overcome social inequalities and fighting gender violence and social exclusion.

The children took part in some entertaining eco-sustainable laboratories coordinated by Cooperativa La Lumaca.
In Santa’s Ecovillage, the children made decorations and Christmas cards using recycled materials, played role-playing games on sustainability issues, watched performances and listened to fairy tales about Christmas and the environment.

Blessed by a lovely sunny day, the event ended with the traditional festive toast held outdoors.

The day was an opportunity to reaffirm and share the values guiding the activities of Fondazione Iris Ceramica Group, which continues to work on the front line to protect the environmental heritage and support solidarity initiatives.
