Casa San Giuseppe

Founded in 2011, Casa San Giuseppe is a non-profit association based in Peschiera Borromeo, Italy working on children & youth, community development.

Casa San Giuseppe is an Italian voluntary association, registered as an ONLUS in the Province of Milan, that promotes family-based care for children and young people in difficulty. It works to give minors aged 0 to 17 who have experienced abandonment, abuse or serious family conflict the chance to live in a family setting, with the aim of reuniting children with their families of origin where possible. The association is developing a complex in Bustighera, in the municipality of Mediglia, with two family homes for foster families and spaces for temporary or emergency hosting of adults in difficulty, including young mothers and relatives of hospital patients. Its activities are funded by donations and the 5x1000 tax allocation.
