In the heart of Trieste, Saint Nicholas made a spirited return, riding the iconic sidecar and accompanied by a convoy of motorcyclists. The journey unfolded through the bustling streets from Oberdan Square to the grand Piazza Unità.
After a brief pit stop for snapshots, Saint Nicholas extended his generosity to the children of the Jesus Child Family Home, the Luchetta-Ota-D’Angelo-Hrovatin Foundation, and two shelters catering to single mothers.
Organized by the Recreational and Sports Circle of the Local Police of Trieste, the 27th charity marathon thrived on the benevolence of countless citizens, institutions, and organizations.
Their generous contributions have not only fueled the event but have also added enchantment to the cherished tradition, making Saint Nicholas’ arrival a magical spectacle for the adoring children.
