Lovers of Italian food from Melbourne to Canberra know Tonino. For decades, he has managed restaurants dedicated to good, honest food and friendly service. Always with a smile or cheeky grin and a natural warmth that makes you feel like you are eating at home, Tonino has served thousands of happy customers.

But unfortunately, not anymore. After a recent stroke, Tonino has been paralyzed on his left side and is in urgent need of physiotherapy. Without funds or private insurance to cover the costs, he has been confined to a hospital bed since May with no plans for treatment. But Tonino hasn’t given up, his positive attitude persists, and he still has a smile on his face. Tonino is a fighter! But he needs us to fight with him. Please help Tonino by donating today, so he can begin his journey to recovery. He is depending on us and every minute counts, so please give what you can. Thank you.
