Help our brothers and sisters in Italy who have been affected by at least 13 earthquakes in the last 24-hours. Extensive damage has been reported in the area. Over two months ago, Italy was struck by another major earthquake that killed almost 300 people and caused hundreds of millions of dollars in damage.

As we have done many times before with your support, the Sons of Italy Foundation (SIF) has set up an Earthquake Relief Fund to help the Italy recover from these disasters. All donations to this fund are tax-deductible.
The SIF will be working directly with the Embassy of Italy to direct funds to emergency relief, recovery and/or rebuilding as requested by the Italian Government.
