Il Ponte della Luce
A caring exchange creates a ray of light in the bridge between people; volunteers inspire those exchanges, thus helping to illuminate the bridge of light - Il Ponte della Luce.
Il Ponte della Luce is the sharing of songs, conversations, reminiscences, and talents that link Italians through their oral tradition. You can share in these uplifting moments and help strengthen the bridge. Il Ponte della Luce volunteers are people of all ages, and from all walks of life, who are interested in using their skills as part of the Italian community primarily working with, and on projects for, elderly Italians. Il Ponte della Luce program helps volunteers and clients alike gain a sense of belonging through reflections on times past. Become a volunteer today.
