On the occasion of its 105th anniversary and with the Christmas holidays imminent, Sacmi, supplier of machines and complete plants, has renewed its commitment to the local community with a special donation: a specially-equipped vehicle for the Auser Imola association to transport people with mobility difficulties. This latest project is part of a long tradition of solidarity and attentiveness to community needs, particularly as regards services for the most vulnerable sections of society.

To meet the requirements indicated by Auser Imola, a VW Caddy – specially adapted for wheelchair users – was chosen. With over 100 active volunteers and more than 7,000 transports completed in 2024, the association provides valuable daily support for citizens who need to access social-healthcare facilities in the city center or at the main regional hospitals.

“The 105th anniversary offers a major opportunity to reassert our values and our ties with the local populace,” said Sacmi president, Paolo Mongardi. “For us, being an active part of local society means improving quality of life for the neediest. That’s why we’re proud to support Auser Imola and the vital work it does for those who have to deal with mobility and isolation issues on a daily basis.”

The vehicle, already in use at Auser Imola, was adapted by a specialized company to transport people with mobility difficulties, ensuring they can count on the highest standards of safety and comfort. This latest SACMI donation will help replace obsolete vehicles and improve the efficiency of services offered by the association, which often transports dialysis patients to hospital and the elderly to local day care centers.

“We’re extremely grateful to Sacmi for this donation as it allows us to respond effectively to growing demand for transport services for the vulnerable,” said Ivan Mazzanti, president of Auser Imola. “Following the increase in demand for such services after the pandemic,” observes Mr. Mazzanti, “this latest initiative plays a crucial role in helping us renew our commitment to those in need, guaranteeing dignified, safe transport for those who rely on us every day.”
