Autotype Helps Win On Silver Screen
The leading Italian screen print company, Serigraphia Formiginese, has won first prize in the Industrial Screen Print category of the prestigious Silver Screen Awards.
Autotype believes that visitors to its stand will have the opportunity to make a difference to the lives of thousands of children in some of the world's poorest countries and donate to World Vision, or purchase specific items from the charity's alternative gift catalogue.
For 7.50 Euros, stand visitors can purchase a mosquito net, a water cleaning kit or a fruit tree or for 29 Euros four chickens can be bought for a family to help make them independent.
Maurizio Fantato, the marketing manager for Autotype explained further: "Our objective is to raise money in order to help the millions of adults and children struggling against poverty around the world.
In the year of the tsunami we felt this was a good thing to do.
We hope that visitors to our stand will help us make a difference as even a small gift can help save lives.
We will make a separate contribution in proportion with the total amount raised by visitors at FESPA, which will go towards supporting a World Vision project or community." World Vision is a Christian charity currently helping more than 100 million people in nearly 100 countries in their struggle against poverty, hunger and injustice, irrespective of their religious beliefs.
