An Inter Christmas of inclusion and sharing: the Youth Sector's party

Two special evenings, one common link: values, inclusion and Inter spirt. The Inter Youth Sector celebrated Christmas with a double event at PizzAut, a symbol of social responsibility and integration . Monday 15 December was dedicated to the pre-competitive sector, which saw around 270 people coming together for a traditional Christmas dinner. Tuesday 16 December, however, was dedicated to the competitive sector: around 190 people gathered for moments of festivity and belonging.

PizzAut is a project that symbolises inclusion and social responsibility: the first pizzeria in Italy managed entirely by people with Autism. Born in 2016 from the idea and determination of Nico Acampora, PizzAut has the objective of creating working opportunities, autonomy and dignity through a concerete and replicable model of integration.

Both evenings opened with a greeting from Massimo Tarantino, Director of Inter’s Youth Sector, who conveyed the Club’s official holiday wishes and thanked the players, coaches, and staff for their daily work, while also highlighting the human and social value of the project.This was followed by a speech from Nico Acampora, who shared the mission of PizzAut, thanking Inter for a choice that successfully combines sport, values, and social impact. The Inter Top Management were also present alongside Haley Bugeja, Elena Belli and Lidia Consolini from the Women’s First Team. Both events were enriched by a moment of entertainment that involved everyone present, thanks to a performance from a magician well-known to the Italia's Got Talent audience.

Two evenings filled with smiles, sharing and moments of entertainment to exchange the best wishes ahead of Christmas and to reinforce how football and the Inter Youth Sector are vehicles for values, inclusion and sharing.
