FONDAZIONE CARE

To further increase its impact in the field of child neurology, in 2009, the Pierfranco and Luisa Mariani Foundation created a non-profit organisation called “Fondazione Mariani C.A.R.E. (Cura Assistenza Riabilitazione Età Evolutiva) Onlus”, and gave it an endowment.

Fondazione Mariani C.A.R.E., which also sets out to realise Luisa Mariani’s inspiring aims, is committed, primarily, to supporting the Mariani Foundation in the implementation of its projects. The two organisations share the same objectives: alleviating the distress and discomfort of young patients, supporting those who share their difficulties, and supporting clinical centres that deal with neurological problems in childhood.

To fund these activities, Fondazione Mariani C.A.R.E. pays grants to organisations that work in support of scientific and care institutes (particularly in the Lombardy region), with a view to strengthening the existing resources in the field of child neurology. All the projects carried out are validated and monitored by the Mariani Foundation Scientific Committee to ensure that they are of a high level and of scientific value.

Fondazione Mariani C.A.R.E. does not have its own staff, and therefore relies on the Foundation’s organisational structure.
