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

United States, 5th Mar 2026 – Oberheiden P.C. is pleased to announce that the firm’s asset protection attorneys are now offering Nevada asset protection trusts to clients nationwide. Nevada asset protection trusts are unique among domestic asset protection trusts (DAPTs) for their flexibility, and they can be powerful tools for insulating high-net-worth individuals’ assets from creditor claims both in and out of court.
According to the firm’s founding attorney, Dr. Nick Oberheiden, “While many high-net-worth individuals are familiar with the benefits afforded by offshore asset protection trusts, far fewer are familiar with the domestic options that are available. The Nevada asset protection trust can be a particularly good option for individuals who want to protect their assets within the United States while also taking advantage of the estate planning, tax planning, and other benefits that domestic trusts can afford.”
Dr. Oberheiden says that forming Nevada asset protection trust can be a particularly good option for several reasons. For example, while a Nevada asset protection trust is a type of irrevocable trust, a grantor (the individual who forms a trust) still has the ability to modify how they hold their assets over time. This distinguishes Nevada law from the laws of many other states. Nevada also has a shorter statute of limitations for creditor claims than most other states (two years in most cases), and Nevada law does not recognize any exception creditors.
“These factors, combined with the relative ease of forming a Nevada domestic asset protection trust, make using a Nevada DAPT a desirable option in a wide range of circumstances—including circumstances in which high-net-worth individuals might otherwise be looking at transferring assets into an offshore trust established in the Cook Islands or another foreign jurisdiction.” Dr. Oberheiden continues, “If you are interested in learning about your options for protecting your wealth from both known and unknown creditors, it will be worth talking to an attorney about whether a Nevada DAPT is a good option for your individual circumstances.”
While forming a Nevada DAPT involves leveraging the benefits afforded under the state’s trust laws, Dr. Oberheiden emphasizes that this is not solely an option for Nevada residents. “When the Nevada legislature adopted the state’s asset protection trust laws, it specifically opened up the possibility of forming a Nevada DAPT to individuals residing across the country. Although there are certain statutory requirements that make it important to work with a Nevada trust company, individuals nationwide can form statutory trusts in Nevada for asset protection purposes.”
Dr. Oberheiden is also quick to emphasize that while forming a Nevada DAPT is a desirable option in many cases, it is important for all high-net-worth individuals to make informed decisions about their asset protection needs based on their individual circumstances. “While forming a Nevada DAPT to protect real property and other assets will make sense for many individuals, it is important to consider the other options that are available as well. A few states offer self-settled spendthrift trust options that will meet individuals’ needs in some cases; and, in other cases, forming an offshore asset protection trust may be necessary to protect assets located around the world.”
“Additionally,” he continues, “limited liability companies and other vehicles can be used for asset protection as well. Purchasing liability insurance can be a cost-effective means of limiting high-net-worth individuals’ personal liability exposure as well. Ultimately, while we are now offering Nevada asset protection trusts, we are still focused on ensuring that we provide each of our clients with a custom-tailored solution focused on their specific risks and needs.”
Dr. Oberheiden says that high-net-worth individuals who are interested in learning about the options for safeguarding their assets in the U.S. and abroad are encouraged to contact the firm for a complimentary initial consultation. “We have a team of highly skilled asset protection attorneys who are committed to helping our clients protect their assets not only in the short term, but also for future generations.” He continues, “If you have questions, one of our attorneys will be more than happy to schedule a call to begin talking through your options in strict confidence.”

Dubai, UAE, 5th March 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, SPL VPN has announced an architectural transition to an AI-driven routing engine, effectively automating global server selection for its two million users. The shift replaces traditional manual configurations with a proprietary protocol designed to eliminate connection guesswork and latency issues.

This technical advancement is reflected in the platform’s new adaptive interface, which simplifies the experience for over 500,000 daily active users by removing legacy server lists.
“The future of connectivity is a seamless layer that functions before the user identifies a need for it,” stated the Head of Product at SPL. “After eight years of development, we are moving beyond the industry’s traditional ‘server-count race’ toward a model of delivery intelligence.”
