About the Organisation
Together Si Can was born on 8 June 1983 from the idea of a small and courageous group of founding members who ventured into this enterprise without any economic starting point, but animated by strong ideals and great hopes.
The Cooperative was born from the historical tradition of the ACLI and owes its name "Together Si Can" to the motto ACLI 1982 - 1983. The cultural references of Insieme Si Can are those of the masters of Christian social doctrine: the Blessed Giuseppe Toniolo, the politician and trade unionist Giuseppe Corazzin, Cardinal Pietro Pavan, and the French philosophers Jacques Maritain and Emmanuel Mounier. The thinking of these intellectuals is the foundation of a cooperative that enhances the principles of mutuality and solidarity, which operates on a non-profit basis and which is configured as a community enterprise offering responses to the needs of the territories and promoting, through work, their economic and social growth.
“Insieme si può…” (ISP) is a non-profit NGO based in Belluno that is committed in the local area and in around thirty countries in the South of the world in supporting children, women and men living in extreme poverty and in situations of emergency or conflict. It carries out emergency and development cooperation projects that mainly guarantee food, water, school, professional training, human development, health, female empowerment, and distance support.
