Flowers strenghten ties between Netherlands and Rome
Fountain fundraiser
There was a fundraiser to sponsor the restoration of this monument. After the collection of money, it turned out that the fountain had been restored by the city of Rome itself. The money, therefore, got another destination. Another fountain in Rome is restored with the donations. This Giardini fountain was seriously damaged due to a fallen pine tree, but is renovated and inaugurated on Friday 14 July 2017.
Festive celebration with flowers
To celebrate this commissioning, OZ Export and its customers have donated flowers, together with Rose grower Porta Nova from Waddinxveen. The sponsored flowers had the colours of the city, yellow and red. The flowers were placed on the edge of the fountain, and later given to people who contributed to the restoration.
During the festive inauguration, Claudio Parisi Presicce (head of monument care in Rome), Luca Bergamo (Deputy mayor and city council member for Cultural Affairs) and Joost Klarenbeek (second man of the Dutch Embassy) gave speeches about the repairs that were carried out. They expressed their gratitude to everyone who made this project a success.
With donating the flowers, OZ Export wants to emphasise the long-term and stable cooperation between Dutch and Italian companies. The flowers are a fun and creative way to bring Italy and the Netherlands closer together.
