GIORGIO +

CHARITY SHOPS

“I saw in this reality an important opportunity to address the needs of families and individuals. Here each family is a story, and each story is different from the other, but the most beautiful story is that of families who, having been able to change their standard of living because someone in the family has found a job, voluntarily return their card to us. ”

MARYNA +

UKRAINE EMERGENCY

“We fled from Kiev myself, my 13-year-old son, my grandchildren 3 and 1 with my daughter-in-law and her mother. Thanks to the OTB Foundation we were welcomed in Italy. We are very grateful that our children are provided with food and shelter: we thank you for all this hospitality and hope that it will be you, one day, who will come to visit us in Kiev ”

ELYAS +

KAPISA ORPHANAGE

“My name is Elyas I am 14 years old. My father died in the fighting, two years later my mother also died from an illness: my uncle could no longer keep me and took me to the orphanage. Here they give us clothes, stationery, and most importantly regular meals every day. I want to study and learn enough to have a good life. My greatest desire in life is to do something important for the family, to be able to reunite all the members of my family and live together, forever. ”

ATAB +

JOB CLINIC ONLINE

“I am Atab, I am from Senegal and I am 25 years old. I am so glad I had the chance to enroll in Job Clinic Online, they helped me so much. With them I had the chance not only to find a job but also to learn how to work in a team and be useful to society ”

FATIMA +

Driver benefiting from the Pink Shuttle project

““My dream was to become a professional driver and that’s what I am now. Afghan men say that driving is not for women but my colleagues and I at the Pink Shuttle have shown that we can do it and do it well.” ”

DOTT. LUCA BERNARDO +

Ospedale Fatebenefratelli di Milano Pediatrics Director

““I thank the OTB Foundation for its consciousness to us. Since we met, you have given us so much, and not only in this very complex year dictated by the pandemic. We should not survive, we should live: it was thanks to your help that it was possible to give hope and light in the dark moments.” ”

SUSANNA FIORETTI +

Nove Onlus President

““OTB Foundation is the ideal partner: it does not just approve a project, it follows it; it shares the difficulties and the necessary modifications, it cares about the results and the beneficiaries. Brave in fact as in the name, it was the first to believe in the Pink Shuttle by facing with Nove Onlus the challenge of turning a dream into a concrete tool of freedom for Afghan women.” ”

PATRIZIA CORBO +

Piccolo Principe Onlus President

““The Other is a horizon of sense that fills our life with meaning and responsibility, who has met the Other at least once in his life cannot escape his gaze, because he has been demanded. And if that look belongs to a child, it can only come as a sword, straight to the heart. It’s simply what happened in the connection between Little Prince Onlus and the OTB Foundation: we met and never got lost again.” ”

GIUSY LAGANA’ +

General Secretary of the FARE X BENE Association

““For years I have been involved in school projects to prevent, raise awareness and fight all forms of abuse, discrimination, violence, bullying and cyberbullying. It was therefore a great opportunity for me to meet OTB Foundation – founding a group with such concrete and shared corporate social responsibility at all levels of the company – and collaborate with them in the creation of the project Bye Bully. “ ”

PROJECTS

The projects we select meet three specific selection criteria: innovation, direct social impact, sustainability. We follow each of our social development initiatives at every stage of its development and it must be well-accountable, not just in financial terms but also and mostly in terms of number of beneficiaries. Our initiatives often arise from an emergency, with targeted and concrete actions
