A theft that goes beyond the material
The theft of the Captain America costume, kept in Walter Galiano's car, has caused strong indignation not only among the volunteers of the non-profit organization Nida, but also among all those who know the importance of this gesture. Walter, a big-hearted Turin native, has dedicated his life to bringing smiles to sick children throughout Italy, wearing the costume that represents a symbol of hope and joy.
This theft is not just an act of vandalism, but a direct attack on an initiative that is based on love and humanity.
The value of volunteering and community
The non-profit organization Nida, composed of 300 volunteers, self-finances to visit hospitals, orphanages and family homes, dressed as superheroes. Each visit is an opportunity to bring a smile and a moment of happiness to children who face difficult situations. The Captain America costume is not just a dress, but a symbol of hope, a way to make young patients feel special and loved. The community of volunteers is united by a common goal: to make the world a better place, even if only for a moment.
A gesture that hurts the soul
Walter Galiano said: “That dress,” Walter says, “no one can truly understand its importance.” Walter’s words resonate like a cry of pain for an act that goes beyond material theft. It is an attack on the humanity and solidarity that characterize the work of volunteers. The loss of such a significant costume represents a deep wound not only for Walter, but for all those who believe in the power of volunteering and community. The hope is that this act can serve as a warning to everyone, so that they understand the importance of protecting and supporting those who dedicate themselves to others.
