Restorers Alessia Scazzuso, center, and Michele Lullo, right, discuss with the head of the Franciscan convent of St. Francesco a Ripa, Friar Stefano Tamburo, the conservation works required in the cell that St. Francis of Assisi is believed to have used when visiting the convent in Rome, during an inspection, Friday, Feb. 28, 2014. The friars who run the St. Francis a Ripa church in Rome's Trastevere neighborhood are launching a Kickstarter online fundraising campaign Tuesday, March 11, 2014, to try to raise the $125,000 to restore the tiny cell upstairs from the sacristy where St. Francis stayed, The Associated Press has learned. Rather than ask for funding from the Italian government, which owns the church and is responsible for its upkeep, the friars decided on this more democratic crowdfunding initiative thinking it more in keeping with the Franciscan tradition of seeking alms for just what they need, spreading the faith as they beg, and making sure the poor are the priority.
