Vittorio's nomination story

My right arm has been paralyzed since I was very young. Whenever I played basketball, I would become aware of people staring at me, as is they wondered how I dared play with a problem like this. I drew upon my inner strength and stubbornness to keep going and prove to everyone that sport overcomes everything. With enough joy and enthusiasm, everyone can be equal.
