The Campania Gelato Makers Committee, as part of the celebration of the 7^ European Day of Artisanal Gelato (Gelato Day), participates in the event “Running for Research: A Lot of Effort”, to be held in Naples, Piazza del Plebiscito, from 30 to 31 March 2019.
The entire proceeds will be donated to the Telethon Foundation to support research into rare genetic diseases.
The European Artisanal Gelato Day is the only day that the European Parliament has dedicated to a food item so far. Celebrated on March 24th every year in all European countries, with events, meetings, and initiatives aimed at spreading the culture of artisanal gelato, the "Gelato Day" is a unique opportunity to contribute to the valorization of this product, the promotion of artisanal knowledge, and the development of the gastronomic tradition in the sector.
