By donating to the Italian Red Cross, you are helping to provide resources for Italy in it's time of need. The country is one of huge significance for Assassin's Creed fans, and you can help those facing the deadly pandemic on the frontlines by supporting the community fundraiser.
Funds will contribute towards the brave efforts of those combating the disease, by providing emergency assistance, aid and resources.
Italian Red Cross are checking temperatures at 25 airports, providing ambulance transport for coronavirus patients, sharing information on a radio show for migrants, helping older and more vulnerable people get prescriptions and groceries, operating a 24-hour call centre, providing training on how to prevent virus spread, and sharing information through social channels with their slogan – Be Smart, Be Safe, Be Kind. Volunteers are also helping isolated people with food shopping deliveries and getting medicines from pharmacies to homes
We here at The Ones Who Came Before will be collecting money here and donating it directly to the Italian Red Cross website, as they are currently not registered with Go Fund Me.
Coronavirus is something which has affected the whole world, and we know that many reading this will be in self-isolation or quarantine.This is an opportunity for the whole community to come together and make a difference.
If you would like to get involved in the campaign, please send us a message.
All donations are greatly appreciated.

We're pleased to announce that this year we will be hosting two Assassin's Creed community fundraisers, the first of which launches today!
For the last 3 years we have been raising money for a number of causes, so far contributing over £500 in donations and campaigns worldwide.
The Assassin's Creed community is made up of extremely passionate individuals, and we here at The Ones Who Came Before believe that as a collective force we can make a difference.
We are calling on members of the community once again to make a difference, this time by supporting The Italian Red Cross (IFRC)
Italy has an extremely high number of Coronavirus (Corvid19) cases, and the Italian Red Cross are doing everything possible to combat the illness which is spreading at a rapid pace worldwide.
The pandemic in Italy currently has over 24,000 confirmed cases, with a death toll sadly approaching 2000. The country is in complete lockdown in order to prevent further spread oft he disease, meaning millions are unable to leave their homes.
“The reality is this virus is spreading like wildfire. Death is not certain, but the contagion is real" Luca Franzese
