Officials at Italy’s Ministry for Foreign Affairs had strongly advised them against travelling to South Sudan. Less than 24 hours before the flight the couple received a phone call from the Ministry advising them not to go, saying “it is dangerous, and we cannot guarantee your safety.” But Marta Genova, a journalist, and her husband Antonino Costa, a photographer, cared so much about this beautiful story.

This time they have focused their solidarity and given hope to children in a village near the capital of South Sudan, offering them scholarships at the"Secondary School Bro. Augusto Memorial College.” The institution makes up part of a number of projects sponsored by the Italian Bishops’ Conference through its Committee and Service for Charitable Action in the Developing World.

The caps are taken to storage areas using their own cars and vans to a space made available free of charge by a Villaciambra resident and then emptied into “Big Bags” weighing 160-170 kg each. These huge bags are then taken to an area company that recycles the bottle caps and resells the semi-finished product to other companies that use them to produce pipes, utensils, and household accessories.
