The #LoStessoBacio initiative is kicking off for Valentine's Day. On February 14th, Baci Perugina chocolates and postcards will be distributed in six squares across Lazio to demonstrate that love belongs to everyone, including gay and lesbian couples. The distribution initiative, now in its tenth anniversary, continues to be crucial in reaffirming the importance of making love visible in all its forms. Unfortunately, despite the law on civil unions, many couples are still forced to hide their identity to avoid discrimination. With this event, we want to reiterate that love knows no distinctions.
A special thanks to Perugina, which is once again at our side this year, on the occasion of its centenary, and to the associations and volunteers of Gay Center, Arcigay Roma, Arcigay Castelli Roma, Arcigay Latina, Arcigay Frosinone, Arcigay Rieti, Arci Rieti, Unipride Viterbo, and L'Altro Circolo.
The initiative is coordinated by Gay Center with distribution support from the Arcigay Lazio and Lazio Pride committees, which will be held in the city of Albano Laziale.
