The
small Republic decided to select
Michael Schumacher as an Ambassador of San Marino not

Michael
Schumacher is now also
a special representative of the ICM institute,
which works in the area of brain and spinal
column defects, such as epilepsy, multiple
sclerosis and other diseases such
as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.

"I
feel honoured and proud to have been
nominated as an Ambassador of the
Republic of San Marino," said Michael.
|
|
"This
appointment is a further
impetus for the work
I already do. Unfortunately,
it is a fact that many people need our help. In particular,
our attention, compassion and support
is needed to help children who are not
able to help themselves." concluded
Michael Schumacher.
