About Albero della Vita
The Albero della Vita Foundation was founded in 1997 from the founders' desire to create a social organization capable of implementing interventions for children, aimed at safeguarding the right of every child to grow up in the best environmental, family, emotional, and psychological conditions.
Today, the Albero della Vita organization operates throughout Italy and in some developing countries, promoting services for the protection of disadvantaged minors—reception communities, foster family networks, maternity support services, child sponsorship in poor countries—and awareness campaigns on children's rights around the world.
The Albero della Vita Foundation's activities are carried out both in Europe and in developing and poor countries:
- 18,600 days of annual child care;
- 12,775 days of annual care for mother-child units;
- 21,000 students involved in Development Education in schools;
- 100 foster families activated;
- 40 overall projects;
- 24 city areas involved in Italy.
- 39 projects across 4 continents
- 53,000 direct beneficiaries, including children and adults
- 102 beneficiary schools
The Tree of Life Foundation is currently present in Italy, Romania, India, Peru, Kenya, Congo, Indonesia, and Haiti, where targeted interventions are carried out for children, their families, and the local communities they serve.
