The dote educativa - educational endowment - is an “individual assistance plan” which consists of providing children that live in extreme poverty with “personalised” educational tools and services according to their age and specific requirements.

The endowment includes:

• support for the purchase of textbooks, school equipment (notebooks, colours, backpacks, ...), educational games, musical instruments, etc.
• support for extra-curricular expenses (e.g. outings, summer camps, extra-curricular activities, etc.)
• free courses, sports activities and musical education activities
• computer use and free accessing of internet connection
• a set number of hours of support for individual studies (also via volunteers)
• help with transport expenses (to get to school and other centres).
