Scientology Volunteer Ministers Bring the Yellow Tent to Milan, Highlighting Practical Help and More Than Two Decades of Italian Relief Work.Pop-up “Yellow Tent” initiative expands community support in Lombardy while celebrating nearly five decades of international outreach since the programme’s creation in the mid‑1970s.

Yellow Tent in Milan as Volunteer Ministers Mark 50 Years Worldwide, 20+ in Italy

MILAN, Italy — 22 January 2026 — Scientology Volunteer Ministers have brought their distinctive Yellow Tent to Milan as a public point of practical support—offering listening, proven problem-solving tools and guidance for everyday challenges, from communication difficulties to conflict resolution and personal emergencies, as reported by Gazzetta della Lombardia. Deployed internationally in major cities and in the aftermath of crises, the Yellow Tent provides an approachable space where residents speak directly with trained volunteers and learn simple, structured methods that work immediately in daily life.

Training with Proven “Tools for Life”

Volunteer Ministers receive training through “Tools for Life” modules drawn from The Scientology Handbook, covering communication, study methods, assisting those in stress or trauma, and practical steps for resolving disputes and organizing effectively. These tools provide volunteers with a clear pathway for helping both neighbors and disaster survivors through the global Volunteer Ministers disaster response network.

The Church of Scientology created the Volunteer Ministers programme as a religious social service in the mid‑1970s. Since then, Volunteer Ministers have brought practical help to hundreds of disaster sites worldwide, working alongside government agencies, NGOs and community partners.

More Than Two Decades Serving Italy

As evidenced in many media reports and their own websited, Scientology Volunteer Ministers have served Italy for more than two decades through major emergencies and community recovery—working alongside civil-protection teams and municipal services. Our Italian Volunteer Ministers formed Pro.Civi.Co.S (Civil Protection Volunteers of the Scientology Community) after 9/11 as the programme expanded internationally, entering Italy’s National Civil Protection registry very shortly after.

Ivan Arjona-Pelado, Scientology’s representative to the EU and UN explained that “Italian Volunteer Ministers also joined international relief for the 2004 South Asian tsunami, demonstrating our established capacity well before 2006. This strong foundation continues through our earthquake, flood and recovery efforts across Italy”:

  • Abruzzo (L’Aquila), 2009 earthquake: Extended support after the 6 April 2009 earthquake, assisting displaced residents alongside other relief groups during this major national emergency.
  • Emilia-Romagna, 2012 earthquakes: Operations in affected areas like Medolla during the May 2012 sequence, providing shelter assistance, logistics and aid distribution.
  • Sardinia, 2013 floods (Cyclone Cleopatra): Coordinated relief through our Churches and Missions after the severe November 2013 flooding.
  • Central Italy, 2016 earthquake: Rapid response teams from Pro.Civi.Co.S after the 24 August 2016 earthquake.
  • COVID-19 civic support (2020 onward): Sanitisation, local assistance and our multi-year blood donation partnership with AVIS, featured alongside WHO’s Italian blood donor stories.
  • Marche, 2022 floods: Support for communities hit by the September 2022 Marche floods.
  • Emilia-Romagna, 2023 floods: Deployments clearing mud and debris after the May 2023 Emilia-Romagna disaster.
  • Tuscany, 2023 (Campi Bisenzio): Responding at civil-protection request, removing debris and helping residents salvage belongings, earning thanks from the mayor.

Milan: Emergency Readiness Meets Neighborhood Support

In Milan, Volunteer Ministers combine emergency readiness with regular community service—from pandemic assistance to weekly clean-ups and neighborhood improvements. Our northern Italy teams, including those honored in Verona (“Scientology Volunteer Ministers of Verona Honored”), maintain these ongoing public service efforts.

Sandro Oneda, president of our Italian Volunteer Ministers coordinating association, emphasizes: helping through regular blood donation is “a civic duty that aligns perfectly with our mission“.

Strengthening Europe Through Practical Help

Ivan Arjona, Scientology’s representative to the European Union, OSCE, Council of Europe and United Nations, explains the Milan Yellow Tent’s importance:

“Across Europe, social cohesion grows when citizens deliver practical help—especially where institutions face pressure and daily problems feel overwhelming. Volunteer Ministers embody this: community resilience builds when people have tools to help each other with competence, respect and human dignity.”

The Volunteer Ministers Mission

L. Ron Hubbard created the Volunteer Ministers programme in the mid-1970s with a clear purpose: practical assistance and the conviction that “Something can be done about it.” Today we serve hundreds of nations, delivering help at hundreds of disaster sites alongside government agencies, civil protection and NGOs through Scientology.org and VolunteerMinisters.org.

The Milan Yellow Tent continues this mission—celebrating over five decades worldwide and more than two decades strengthening Italian communities through emergency response and everyday support.

The Church of Scientology, its churches, missions, groups and members are present across the European continent. Scientology Europe reports a continent-wide presence through more than 140 churches, missions and affiliated groups in at least 27 European nations, alongside thousands of community-based social betterment and reform initiatives focused on education, prevention and neighbourhood-level support, inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.

Within Europe’s diverse national frameworks for religion, the Church’s recognitions continue to expand, with administrative and judicial authorities in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany Slovakia and others, as well as the European Court of Human Rights, having addressed and acknowledged Scientology communities as protected by the national and international provisions of Freedom of Religion or belief.

March 17, 2026

By

On 14–15 April 2026, Moscow will host Blockchain Forum 2026 — the largest crypto and Web3 event in the CIS, annually bringing together leaders of the digital economy. In recent years, the forum has become the region’s key platform where representatives of the crypto industry, the banking sector, investment funds, and technology companies convene.

More than a Conference — a Market Infrastructure Hub
Blockchain Forum is not merely a conference; it serves as an infrastructural hub for the market. Here, strategic directions for the development of digital assets are discussed, partnerships are forged, and projects shaping the industry agenda are launched.

Scale and Market Concentration
In 2026, the forum will gather over 20,000 participants from 100+ countries, 250 exhibiting companies, and 200+ exclusive speakers, many appearing in Russia for the first time. This creates a unique concentration of expertise, capital, and technology on a single platform.

Participants include investors, venture funds, banks, crypto exchanges, Web3 startups, and infrastructure companies. This combination makes the forum a space for direct dialogue between developers, businesses, and capital.

200+ Exclusive Speakers
The forum programme features presentations by leaders of crypto platforms, heads of investment funds, experts in digital asset regulation, and representatives of the technology sector. Many of the speakers rarely appear in the region, making the forum a significant opportunity to obtain first-hand information and engage directly.

Exhibition and Practical Case Studies
The exhibition area will bring together 250 leading crypto companies, showcasing infrastructure solutions, new products, and services. Participants will not only hear about trends on stage but also see technologies in action — from top projects to direct interaction with founders and teams.

AI Future Forum: The Synergy of AI and Web3
A dedicated section of the programme will be the AI Future Forum, a specialised platform focused on integrating artificial intelligence with blockchain technologies. The synergy between AI and Web3 is regarded by the market as one of the key vectors for the development of the digital economy in the coming years.

Networking as a Strategic Tool
Blockchain Forum is traditionally viewed by participants as a venue for strategic networking. Beyond the stages, negotiations take place, partnerships are formed, and investment decisions are discussed. The event format allows attendees to gain in two days a volume of contacts and practical insights that would otherwise require months of work.

Official Afterparty: L’One
The official afterparty will feature L’One, one of the brightest performers on the Russian stage. His live performance will serve as the forum’s climax, bringing participants together in an atmosphere of a large-scale show and premium networking. The afterparty traditionally continues the business programme in a more informal setting.

Blockchain Forum 2026 combines a business environment, a technological agenda, and an investment concentration, creating a space for decisions that shape the development of the market.

Tickets are available on the official website. Using the promo code blockman at purchase grants a 10% discount.

Sris Sinnathamby Launches Free 15-Minute Long-Term Thinking Checklist

Published

3 hours ago

on

March 17, 2026

By

Los Angeles, USA, 17th March 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Sris Sinnathamby, a Los Angeles–based Real Estate Developer and Investor with more than 30 years of experience, has released a free resource designed to help everyday individuals apply long-term thinking to major life and property decisions.

The new “15-Minute Long-Term Thinking Checklist” is a practical self-audit tool built around the same principles that have guided his career through market cycles, capital constraints, and economic downturns.

“I define success as building things that last while staying aligned with my values and commitments,” Sinnathamby said. “It’s about long-term impact, not short-term wins.”

The checklist encourages individuals to pause, assess fundamentals, and evaluate sustainability before making major financial commitments.

Why This Matters Right Now

The financial pressure on households continues to grow:

  • Housing costs account for about 30% of the average U.S. household budget.

  • More than 40% of renters are considered cost-burdened, spending over 30% of income on housing.

  • U.S. household debt has surpassed $17 trillion.

  • Nearly 60% of Americans say they live paycheque to paycheque.

Sinnathamby believes many financial setbacks stem from weak fundamentals and emotional decision-making.

“The 2008 financial crisis taught me that cash flow is paramount and always think long-term,” he said. “If the fundamentals are not strong, growth won’t be sustainable.”

The checklist reflects his disciplined, operator mindset.

“I regularly review progress, adjust based on real data, and stay focused on what actually moves the needle,” he said.

What’s Inside the Checklist

The guide walks users through five simple categories:

  • Cash flow clarity

  • Long-term alignment

  • Stress testing assumptions

  • Operational reality

  • Decision discipline

“Sustainable results matter more to me than short-term recognition,” Sinnathamby said.

Use This in 15 Minutes

  1. Set a timer for 15 minutes.

  2. Write down your monthly fixed and variable costs.

  3. Identify one financial assumption you are making.

  4. Stress-test it. What happens if income shifts or costs rise?

  5. Adjust your decision timeline if needed.

Common Mistakes People Make

  • Focusing on price, not total cost.

  • Ignoring cash flow risk.

  • Rushing decisions due to market hype.

  • Expanding commitments without a buffer.

Sinnathamby believes discipline reduces regret.

“Consistent routines and focusing on controllable actions help me move forward even when outcomes feel uncertain,” he said.

Call to Action

The 15-Minute Long-Term Thinking Checklist is available as a free download at srissinnathamby.com. Readers are encouraged to use it before signing a lease, purchasing property, or making any large financial commitment. Take 15 minutes today. Complete the checklist. Identify one risk. Strengthen one decision.

Small, disciplined actions now can prevent major setbacks later.
