L’Albero della Vita (FADV) works towards improving the family and social system in which a child exists and towards creating a safe environment for his/her effective growth. Internationally, FADV’s operational area currently includes Italy, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Kenya, Peru, and Haiti.
As from 2010, three foreign branch offices of the Italian Foundation have been established in the South of the World: a Liaison Office in India and two operational offices (Branch Offices) in Peru and Kenya.

Support a child today to make a better adult tomorrow
Way back in the Christmas of 1996, a group of like-minded men and women united by the fireside in Assi and gave birth to Fondazione L’Albero della Vita (FADV). They had a strong desire to find a purpose to live more meaningful lives. They strongly desired to make differences in lives of children and youth living in difficult conditions. In April 1997, FADV was established as an international NGO headquartered in Milan – Italy.
Since its establishment, FADV has been working to ensure well-being of children and for their rights. The organization has taken effective actions to create conditions for a dignified life by providing food, care and medical treatment to children and a safe enabling environment for their growth.
