Corporate Social Responsibility accessibility in action:
a concrete contribution advancing safe, inclusive participation in sport.
Lanciano (CH), Italy – 24 February 2026 – As part of its ongoing commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility accessibility and community inclusion, IOCCO supported the purchase and donation of a specialized pool lift for people with disabilities at Lanciano Sport Center, improving safe and assisted access to the swimming pool.
The donation was made possible through the joint contribution of IOCCO, the Lions Club Lanciano Frentania, and the Rotary Club Lanciano Costa dei Trabocchi, demonstrating how business and associative organizations can collaborate to create measurable social impact.
The pool lift was officially placed in the water and tested for the first time in the presence of Alessandra Petrucci CEO of IOCCO and Lions Guida; Luigi Spadaccini, Lions Guida of the Lions Club Lanciano Frentania; Barbara Rosati and Graziella Cianfrone representing the Rotary Club Lanciano Costa dei Trabocchi. Representing Lanciano Sport Center were Franco D’Intino, President of the facility, and Simona Fattore, Head of Marketing.
“For me, accessibility means inclusion. Every person should have the opportunity to experience sport safely and with appropriate support. When associative engagement and entrepreneurial responsibility move in the same direction, inclusive participation becomes a concrete reality.”
