Invitations for tenders for companies in Turin and its province are back

Angelo Conti & Lucia Caretti

We have to start again. It will not be easy and it will be a battle into which we will also have to put a lot of courage. We will have to do it all together, returning to believe in our projects and our dreams. Specchio dei tempi has always meant hope and has always meant Turin. So we want to help our city and our province again, exactly one year after the launch of the “Coronavirus Emergency” subscription. We want to replicate the call for tenders of last May with an initiative aimed at supporting the small and very small artisan, agricultural, tourist and commercial activities that are trying to restart after the hardest months of the pandemic.

Specchio puts € 200,000 on the plate to offer a cheque of € 2000 to 100 micro-companies, to help their recovery and the morale of those who fight this difficult battle. As always, the possibility of sharing this mission is opened up to all, increasing the resources available and thus allowing a greater amount of aid.

The second edition of the “A breath for Turin” tender will be inaugurated on March 6, with the start of applications. There is time until 21 to participate by filling out the form available on this page and uploading all the required documents. At the end of March, the Specchio commission will meet and starting from 6 April we will begin to provide subsidies. All in a month, without wasting time, just as we like it.

HOW TO SUPPORT THE “A BREATH FOR TORINO 2” TENDER.
From 6 March 2020 to today, Specchio has raised over 10 million euros to support the fight against Coronavirus, through almost 16,000 donations from 70 countries around the world. Resources that every day have been transformed into concrete and immediate help: 1.1 million protective devices for health workers; 146 pieces of medical machinery and equipment (including two CAT scanners) donated to 19 Piedmontese hospitals; a thousand tablets, several hundred sanitizing kits and online teaching platforms for schools. Tens of thousands of shopping packages for the elderly and families in difficulty, distributed first in Turin and then throughout Italy. Anyone wishing to support this project and the tender for small businesses can do so by paying online with a click here, or by using any of the methods indicated here.
