CASA VERITAS SUISSE
In 2018 I met José, who is still my partner today. At that time, we had started a project on superfood. Thanks to that project we met Suora Adelina.
A wonderful friendship was born from José, Adelina, and me. She told us about her story, studies, tumor, a certain death they thought was coming, an unexpected awakening from a coma, and the mission in Africa.
We started in our small way to give her a hand. My grandmother emigrated from Italy to Switzerland after the second World War. She opened a textile factory there. For years it had been closed for my grandmother's retirement, and I decided not to sell them, but to give them to Adelina so that it would be possible to create a business downstairs for young mothers, who are abandoned without marriage.
To our knowledge, we gifted medicine and other medical supplies. We founded Casa Veritas Suisse with the aim of creating jobs, eco-sustainable agriculture, sports, schools, etc. Now with the War in Ukraine, we have created welcome hubs in Lugano, collected food and medicines, and are actively working with restaurants for a fundraiser to help Ukraine.
We are a small diligent group and lucky to be living in Switzerland because there are many people who are not as fortunate. We are a group of people who work in different fields, combining knowledge and building a community to work and help people in need.
Casa Veritas Suisse aims to create and manage projects, respectively structures, intended for the primary needs of people in difficulty, destitute and needy, with particular reference to housing, clothing and sustenance, teaching and supply of basic necessities and for agricultural development economic in Switzerland, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Cameroon. Generally, priority is given to projects that aim at the operational and economic autonomy and independence of local populations who are not already eligible for public financial aid. The purpose of the Association is of mere public and non-partisan interest and any profit-making purpose is deemed to be excluded.
