Out on the streets for the Gift
We spent three days – and even longer – in the square. Which one? The very central Piazza Bodoni. Why? To resume the activities of *Il Dono del Volontariato*. When? From the moment all the exhibitors’ stalls sprang up like mushrooms (you can see the time-lapse at the start of the film) until all the exhibitors’ stalls had been dismantled (you can see this at the end of the film too). But what exactly is ‘Dono del Volontariato’? It’s Vol.To’s Christmas village: volunteers bring their experiences of solidarity and their products to the square (Bodoni). Plus, there are shows and entertainment for adults and children, with Father Christmas as the special guest.

Out on the streets for the StraVol.To
That’s right: we walked for kilometres and kilometres through the centre of Turin as part of the StraVol.To event on 5 December, International Volunteer Day. Young people in Civil Service, civic volunteers and members of third sector organisations have been contributing first-hand to StraVol.To since 2023 to mark this occasion. StraVol.To is a sort of competition designed to promote a culture of solidarity amongst citizens at local, European and international levels, whilst strengthening the bonds between volunteers.
The participants, divided into several teams, take to the streets of Turin’s city centre and compete in a series of challenges, including photography, street art, puzzle games and poetry, with the aim of engaging as many members of the public as possible, asking them about their previous volunteering experiences and swelling the ranks of potential new volunteers. At the end of the morning, the teams with the highest scores are awarded prizes.
