Cameroonese soccer player Samuel Eto’o organised a charity gala evening for his private foundation on March 19th at the Visionnaire club in Milan, in order to raise funds for the Laquintinie Pediatric Hospital in Cameroon.

Several objects were gifted by international sports stars, including Valentino Rossi’s motorbike helmet, Usain Bolt’s running shoes, the Inter Milan soccer jersey worn by Samuel Eto’o during the final of the UEFA Champions League, and many others.

Wolfgang Sickenberg, Audemars Piguet Chief Sales Officer, and Franco Ziviani, CEO of Audemars Piguet Italy, attended the event in the company of Formula 1 racing driver and brand ambassador Jarno Trulli. Other guests included several Milan AC team members (Filippo Inzaghi, Paolo Maldini, etc.), top fashion model Esther Canadas, actress Valeria Marini and singer Andrea Bocelli.

“I am delighted that my friends have donated these precious objects to support my project on behalf of Cameroon”, said Samuel Eto’o. “I am convinced that this evening will help to improve the living conditions of the children and young people in my country.”
