Please see the new fundraising effort by Vincenzo Mancuso to continue working on Trentini Americani, a memory project that features the immigration experience of Trentini in the United States.
Trentini Americani is a collection of interviews started in 2009 and ended in 2018. The project was produced by the Historical Museum of Trentino, which allowed the collection of over 160 interviews: an extremely valuable memory bank.
The project is proceeding very slowly and it has been suspended several times. There are no more funds available from the Museum, and there are no regional or state funds accessible at the moment. The situation worsened because of the Coronavirus, which hit Italy particularly hard.
Direct help from the Trentino community would be the only solution to complete the film. Trentini Americani: please help Vincenzo to finish this project. This film is about your history, your memory, and your families. The minimum budget necessary to complete the film production is $9000.
We invite you to make a donation – no matter the amount.
To all the organizations that will be able to donate at least $1000, Vincenzo guarantees the film presentation and screening at their premises starting in the Fall of 2021. Corporate sponsorships will also be appreciated. Companies logos will be shown in the end credits. All supporters will receive the link to the film streaming.
Thank you in advance! Grazie in anticipo!

From the Associazione Trentini nel Mondo
Dear friends,
Almost 2 months have passed since on 10th March Trentini nel mondo closed its office in Trento due to the medical emergency caused by Coronavirus. It is been a rough couple of months for anybody, both for individual and for the association.
We thank you for the support and affection you showed us through phone calls, messages and encouragement videos with yours photos.
From 4th May we could come back to the office, with a lot of limitations and precautions but with such determination.
Now we have a new challenge. Unfortunately we were obliged to cancel almost all the initiatives for this year, we are really sorry but we couldn’t do differently. In the next weeks the office and the executive of the association will be working on preparing a new activities planning for the second part of the year. It will be an important effort of creativity and optimism and we will try to do it together with you, members, Trentino Clubs and friends.
Thank you again and we really hope to restart soon with a new enthusiasm in Italy and all over the world.

Circolo Trentino di San Francisco was founded on February 9, 1980 during a visit to the Bay Area by Dr. Bruno Fronza on behalf of the Trentini nel Mondo Association. The first president was Vittorio Eccher, the first vice-president was Laura Floriani Vitlacil, and our current president, Giuseppina Piasente Alvarez, was secretary. From the initial group of 30, the roster has grown to around 200! We plan a proper celebration once the quarantine in California has been relaxed.
We thank board member A. Amigassi for creating this elegant 40th anniversary logo, inspired by the green valleys of Trentino and the blue oceans of California. ... See MoreSee Less
