With the aim of developing our skills, discover our talent and develop our autonomy. “Differently Heroic” We are the protagonists of our days! Our motto is “One for all and all for one!" The association's activity is totally managed by volunteers. The economic resources of the association derive from membership and donations from associates and public bodies following participation in tenders. We have just completed a project called “Diversamente Contadini” in collaboration with the “Il Cuore si Scioglie Foundation” of UNICOOP Florence, were raised the funds to allow us to work alongside a winery of the splendid Chianti area in the municipalities of Gaiole in Chianti, Radda in Chianti and Castellina in Chianti, where guided by internal staff and a professional educator, we will be introduced to the tasks of preparing and cultivating a vegetable garden, working in the vineyards, maintenance of gardens, care of farmyard animals and processing of raw materials into excellent finished products.
