Student Achievements at the Orphanage

Pro Italia Motorcycles Fundraiser a Success

For three weekends (January 30-31, February 6-7 and February 13-14), Pro Italia held a bike wash to raise funds to benefit Maison Fortuné Orphanage Foundation. In all, they raised $510.00 to benefit the children at the orphanage in Hinche, Haiti. They washed the bikes for a suggested donation of $35 per bike. Ducati executives flew in to wash bikes as well as Pro Italia owner Bill Nation and others. In addition, they donated $5 for every Pro Italia T-shirt purchased and $10 for every Pro Italia sweatshirt or jacket purchased.

Pro Italia Los Angeles is located at 3319 N Verdugo Road, Glendale, California 91208. Their telephone number is 818-249-5707 and their web site is: www.proitalia.com. Many thanks to Bill Nation, Bob Berkow, Karen and Joe for their efforts to make a difference in the life of the children at Maison Fortuné Orphanage.
