Disaster shook central Italy on Wednesday morning when it\u00a0was hit with a 6.2-magnitude earthquake<\/a>. The death toll has since risen to 247. Several small towns in the region were demolished and the government is working to amplify their recovery operations.<\/p>\n

More than 600 restaurants throughout Italy are donating 2 euros for every dish served and Italian restaurants in other countries are quickly catching on.<\/p>\n
