Lamborghini has gifted His Holiness Pope Francis, aka the “Cool Pope,” with a one-of-a-kind Huracan. The Italian based company paid tribute to the Vatican State, which it surrounds, and His Holiness by customizing the car to represent the colors of the Vatican’s flag.
The customization was done in house by the brands customization department, “Ad Personam” and revealed to Pope Francis in the Vatican. The car will be auctioned off in May of 2018 with the profits going to the following charities and projects, chosen by His Holiness:
- The reconstruction of the Nineveh Plain under the patronage of the Pontifical Foundation “Aiuto alla Chiesa che Soffre” (Aid to the Church in Need). The aim of the project is to ensure the return of the Christian community to the Nineveh Plain in Iraq by rebuilding their homes, public edifices and places of worship.
- The Pope John XXIII Community, which is dedicated to helping women who are victims of trafficking and other abuses on the 10th anniversary of the passing of Father Oreste Benzi and the 50th anniversary (in 2018) of the founding of the Community, “Progetto Casa Papa Francesco” (Pope Francis House Project).
- Two Italian associations that carry out activities mainly in Africa: GICAM, headed by Dr. Marco Lanzetta, and “Amici per il Centrafrica” (Friends for Central Africa), have worked for many years in the region on initiatives dedicated primarily to aiding women and children in need.
