The Cariplo Foundation has been engaged in philanthropic activities for over twenty years, with a passion for art, culture, scientific research, social aspects and the environment. At present, it focuses on providing support for young people, community welfare and personal wellbeing, developing projects in cooperation with non-profit organisations. Since 1991, the foundation has supported over 30 thousand initiatives and invested over 2.5 billion euros in charitable causes. These resources have been generated by the judicious investment of capital which, re-evaluated in recent years and having survived the recession, is currently valued at over 8 billion euros. In recent years the Cariplo Foundation has learned to adapt and innovate its approach to philanthropy, such as in the case of social housing or cultural districts, acting not a mere patron but as a veritable incubator of ideas.
