This year, ICCO joined in the efforts to improve the quality of life and the social integration of people diagnosed with autism. As a gold sponsor, we supported the "Inimi albastre" [Blue Hearts] Charity Ball, an event organized by the association Raza de Speranta Brasov.

Key figures such as the multiple Olympic medalist Elisabeta Lipa, the athlete Doina Melinte, the gymnast Monica Rosu, the fashion designer Catalin Botezatu, the TV presenter Malvina Cervenschi and the box champion Mihai Leu have donated various objects for which the participants bid substantial amounts of money. The collected funds will be directed towards the support of therapies and daily programmes intended for more than eighty beneficiaries of the association.

The Association supports children and young people with autism spectrum disorders to progress on their way to recovery and independence.
