The project in detail

Borse del Cuore project aims to help the young people involved develop their personal and professional skills, encouraging their autonomy and inclusion in the workforce. Each activity has been designed to meet the specific needs of the individual participants through, for example, guidance and counselling, specific training for CV writing, experiential workshops, cultural activities and BLS courses (Basic Life Support).

Toward new milestones

The project has achieved significant results and has proven effective in supporting young people in their growth journey, from passing high school graduation exams to obtaining technical and professional diplomas. Among the 15 beneficiaries, one student even received a scholarship to access university.

The initiative also contributed to improving personal autonomy and developing skills needed in the workplace, helping participants gain greater self-esteem and awareness of their abilities through the experiences gained during the program.
