The charity initiative "Calendario Perazza" continues with its eighth edition. This year, once again, athletes from Benetton Rugby, Nutribullet Treviso Basket, and Prosecco DOC Imoco Volley posed for photo shoots, which were used to create the charity calendars. The goal is to collect donations in support of children treated at the Venetian Oncology Institute (IOV) and in the pediatric ward of the Treviso hospital.

For the 2025 calendar, there's something new: a collaboration with ENPA ODV - National Animal Protection Organization, Treviso branch. In each photo, athletes pose with dogs and cats, many of whom come from local shelters managed by the organization that cares for homeless or abandoned animals. With this choice, "Calendario Perazza" adds to its usual charitable goal of raising funds for health centers caring for children, and raising awareness for responsible animal adoption. All athletes enthusiastically conveyed the message. They posed with great naturalness: some even included their own pets, showing how important a part they are of their lives and highlighting the importance of caring for them.

For the 2025 edition, WOC, official formalwear partner of Benetton Rugby, So Treviso, and Sorelle Ramonda, who already participated last year, also join. The three companies dress the white-green lions, the basketball players from Nutribullet Treviso Basket, and the Prosecco Doc Imoco Volley panthers respectively in some of the selected photos. As usual, the Municipality of Treviso supports "Calendario Perazza" with its official patronage.

In previous editions, the initiative has raised a total of over 160,000 euros, of which 30,640 euros were in 2024. Last year, the amount was equally distributed between IOV and the pediatric ward of the Treviso hospital and was used to purchase modern equipment for treating children and to support activities to alleviate the discomforts of pediatric hospitalization. The connection with both medical institutions continues this year.

The calendars will be available from today on the website calendarioperazza.it. Copies can also be purchased at stadiums and sports halls during the matches of the participating teams.
