We promote a culture of solidarity at the national and international level through a bottom-up approach.

The Fontana Foundation Onlus was founded in Italy in 1998 with the purpose of pursuing goals of social solidarity and implementing peace projects, international cooperation activities and intercultural education. It promotes a culture of solidarity at both national and international level, adopting a bottom-up approach. The Fontana Foundation Onlus encourages networking and collaboration among various local actors during all stages of its projects (formulation, implementation and evaluation), with the aim of enhancing resources and competences from the areas of operation.

Fontana Foundation Onlus operates in four main areas: 
1) international development cooperation through the support of Strategic Partners in Kenya (St. Martin CSA, L’Arche Kenya). All the international cooperation projects are inspired by a communitarian and participatory development approach. Reciprocity, participation, network: three watchwords of a collaborative approach which involves the local community since the beginning of the project.
The Five main Programs of our Strategic Partner Saint Martin and L'Arche Kenya under the motto "Only Through Community" are:
- Community Programme for Children in Need 
- Community Programme for Mental Health
- Community Programme for Peace and Reconciliation
- Disability Outreach Program
- Emergency Response Program

2)	education and training on global issues and development through the following projects: 
World Social Agenda (www.worldsocialagenda.org) is a cultural multi-year project to promote education, awareness and information on topics related to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Through the World Social Agenda, Fontana Foundation Onlus provides annually - since 2000 - an advanced and participatory educational opportunity for more than 3000 students and 150 teachers in Italy, focusing each year on one of the MDGs.
3)	information – through the web portal Unimondo – www.unimondo.org; 
with a group of young and committed journalists, based across the Italy and abroad, the portal aims to support and provide qualified and pluralist information regarding human rights, peace, democracy and environmental issues on a daily basis. 
4)	microcredit and microfinance – believing in microcredit and microfinance as a way to foster global development, Fontana Foundation invests more than 30% of its assets in microcredit programmes.
The main offices of Fontana Foundation are located in Trento (Trentino-Alto Adige Region) and in Padua (in the Veneto Region).
