Italian celebrity pastry chef Iginio Massari, known for his dazzling victories in over 300 national and international competitions, has donated three ventilators to Brescia's Civil Hospitals' Intensive Care Unit (ICU) through his non-profit organization, La Zebra Onlus. Apart from being a master in sweets, Massari is an author and TV personality on culinary talent shows. He's encouraging everyone to join hands and contribute to funding ICUs during the Coronavirus crisis.

"Generosity saves lives. Lend a hand to our cause, it's your turn now!" Massari posted on his Facebook. Recently, he announced that all sales points in Brescia, Milan, and Turin would be closed to prioritize safety, with online shopping available for his products instead.

In light of the recent fundraising goals set by La Zebra Onlus, aiming to raise €200,000 for a significant but high-risk project, it seems likely that this effort continues to support healthcare initiatives, possibly stemming from the pandemic response[1]. However, the exact nature of the project isn't specified as being solely for COVID-19 ICUs in the latest Instagram posts. There's also mention of La Zebra Onlus participating in the 1000 Miglia Charity event from June 17 to 21, 2025, but there's no direct update on the current status or monetary outcome of the emergency fundraising for intensive care units[2].

All in all, while La Zebra Onlus persists in its fundraising efforts for meaningful causes and sets new targets, the latest information doesn't clarify the amount amassed for ICUs or confirm the current status specifically for the COVID-19 emergency relief project[1][2].
