We help the Present,
contributing to the Future

Human dignity
is at the center
of each
of our actions
In 1998 we decided to establish an independent foundation, which became the Fondazione Italiana Charlemagne.
“Let’s help those in need” – we said as we sat around the table.
We wanted to improve hygiene and reduce social exclusion, poverty and misery.
Therefore, we started the first project, then a second, and then a third. In 20 years we have carried out more than one thousand projects.
Today, in addition to actively supporting single projects, we work to create a sustainable non-profit ecosystem and a strategic partnership system embracing Italian and foreigner foundations that share with us common values
Economic resources, consulting
professional development, and managerial support

The Fondazione Charlemagne now does not only provide
economic resources, but also offers services that support other
organisations, with consulting, professional formation,
and managerial support – respecting the organisations
and their identities.
Often this aspect is undervalued but, in reality it is
what distinguishes us.
Trust is a fundamental element that inspires the relationships
of the Fondazione Charlemagne. Not only trust in the activities,
but also in the potential coming together that is promoted by
our partner organisations.
Behind every reality there are real people.
