Giulio Boati, founder of Centro aiuto alla vita Ambrosiano, dies

Giulio Boati, a founding member and longtime president of the Centro aiuto alla vita Ambrosiano, has died following an illness. Giuseppe Del Giudice, the current president of the center, announced the death and described Boati as a defender of life who worked to support vulnerable people and build a supportive community.

Boati led the center for a period of time. One of his primary contributions was the 1988 establishment of Casa Letizia, a project designed to support mothers in difficulty and their children. The initiative aimed to provide mothers with the resources needed to keep their children rather than facing the separation of families. Del Giudice noted that Boati sought to provide women with both material and relational support through new approaches to social distress.

Funeral services for Boati were scheduled for Friday, October 2, at 2:45 p.m. at the Parish of Santi Nabore e Felice in Milan.
