In December 2025, Kapa3 took part once again the Visit of Love<\/em><\/strong>, an initiative by WinCancer<\/strong> <\/a>that aims to bring warmth, presence, and emotional support to those who will spend the holiday season in oncology hospitals.<\/p>\n

Once again, the response was deeply moving<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Cards and messages arrived from all over \u2014 through the post, by courier, in parcels both large and small, and sometimes delivered by hand. Each one carried a simple but powerful message: you are not alone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Among them were cards written by preschool children, some with their very first letters, others expressed through drawings and colours. Messages full of innocence, light, and hope \u2014 \u201cget well so we can eat Christmas cookies together.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There were also messages from adults who had faced cancer in the past and now shared their words of encouragement together with their children, closing a circle of empathy and solidarity.<\/p>\n

This action is addressed to everyone who will spend the holidays in oncology hospitals<\/strong> \u2014 patients, companions, and healthcare professionals alike \u2014 acknowledging the emotional weight of these days and the importance of human connection.<\/p>\n

The process was intense<\/strong>, emotional<\/strong>, and, at times, chaotic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Glitter and golden dust filled desks, clothes, and hair. While those traces will eventually disappear, the love, smiles, and hope that passed through our hands will remain.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For Kapa3<\/strong>, supporting initiatives like the Visit of Love<\/em><\/strong> is an essential part of our mission: to strengthen collaboration, promote solidarity, and contribute to actions that place human connection at the centre of care.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We warmly thank WinCancer<\/strong> for the trust and collaboration, as well as everyone who participated and offered a piece of their heart.\u00a0Together, we can continue creating moments that matter.<\/p>\n

Until next year,<\/strong> we hold on to the love, the hope, and the reminder that small gestures can make a big difference.<\/p>\n
