Toys for Tots 2012
Il progetto pilota ebbe un tale successo che il “Toys for Tots” venne adottato ufficialmente dal Corpo dei Marines degli Stati Uniti d’America, sin dal 1948. Nel corso degli anni molte celebrità hanno partecipato a tale iniziativa, tra i quali va ricordato il musicista Nat “King” Cole, il comico Bob Hope e l’attore John Wayne. Walt Disney nel 1948, prestò la sua opera disegnando il logo della manifestazione, usato ancora oggi.Fino a qualche decennio fa, tale manifestazione veniva organizzata solamente sul suolo americano, ma come accade per molto altro del “made in USA” anche il “Toys for Tots” è stato oggetto d’esportazione, iniziando il suo percorso italiano dalla base USAF di Aviano, in provincia di Pordenone.Grazie alla comune passione per i mezzi a due ruote fra americani ed italiani la manifestazione è stata sdoganata dalla base USAF e dal 1998 si svolge l’edizione del “Toys for Tots” italianizzato.Da allora ad ogni edizione si riscontrava un crescendo nel numero di partecipanti nonostante le condizioni climatiche non proprio favorevoli (va ricordato che il Toys for Tots si svolge ogni anno a Dicembre).A ricevere la puntuale visita annuale dei partecipanti alla manifestazione è la sede di San Vito al Tagliamento dell’associazione “La Nostra Famiglia”, Ente Ecclesiastico che si occupa di attività ONLUS di assistenza sanitaria, socio–sanitaria, istruzione e formazione finalizzate in particolare a persone disabili e svantaggiate, inoltre sono accolti bambini con grave disagio familiare in attesa di affido o adozione, bambini e adolescenti soli o con disagio socio-ambientale in piccole comunità o in nuclei di tipo familiare. Sono questi i bambini protagonisti del Toys for Tots che ogni anno attendono con trepidazione i loro amici motociclisti.
