We are pleased to announce that we will continue to support Fondazione Somaschi throughout 2025, reaffirming our commitment to an organization that has long been dedicated to helping those in vulnerable situations with professionalism and care.
Founded in 2011, Fondazione Somaschi offers shelter, support, and pathways to autonomy for children, women, and adults facing hardship. The foundation operates in Lombardy, Liguria, Piedmont, Lazio, and Sardinia, and is active across six main areas: Minors, Mother-Child, Healthcare, Adults, Migrants, and Local Community Services.
This year as well, our support will focus on two key projects:
Anti-Violence Centers
The Anti-Violence Centers are safe spaces where women of all ages—alone or with children—who are experiencing violence or abuse can access free services, including:
- A protected environment to share their stories;
- Psychological support and legal assistance;
- Guidance toward economic, housing, and work-related independence;
- A point of reference connected to social services, law enforcement, health clinics, and emergency rooms.
The centres are staffed by specially trained professionals who work with each woman to create a personalized path that respects her needs and choices.
Antigone Safe House
The Antigone Safe House is a confidential shelter for women—alone or with children—who are victims of domestic violence and must leave their homes and local communities to ensure their safety.
Since 2012, the shelter has supported over 1,000 women. It offers:
- 30 beds in a protected and undisclosed location;
- A dedicated educational team that builds individualized support programs;
- Everything is needed to help women rebuild an independent, free, dignified life.
We are proud to continue supporting Fondazione Somaschi and contribute to building real opportunities for those most in need.
