What We Do

Fondazione Lucrezia Tangorra E.T.S. was established in 2013 with a clear mission: to design, develop, and implement educational and training projects that synergistically complement the school curriculum, from primary through upper secondary education.

We firmly believe in innovation and dedicate great attention to new technologies, integrating digital tools into both learning and the promotion of reading and writing. We combine high-impact infrastructural interventions — such as creating libraries, computer labs, science laboratories, and dedicated support spaces — with concrete initiatives benefiting the most disadvantaged groups.

In parallel, we provide young people with a free, inclusive space for discovery that complements standard academic instruction. Here, they can explore stories, books, new languages of expression, and new technologies without the pressure of academic evaluation or the fear of grades.

Vision & Civic Engagement

We believe that access to culture and innovation is an irreplaceable tool for fostering independence, developing critical thinking, and accelerating the civic evolution of a community. To turn this vision into reality, we deliver cutting-edge environmental interventions and educational programs, striving to transform resource deficits into concrete opportunities, with a primary focus on vulnerable groups and communities at greater risk of marginalization.

Our Story: Lucrezia’s Legacy

The Foundation bears the name of Lucrezia, a young girl who never had the chance to start primary school, nor attend middle or high school. Her dreams never had to contend with the passage of time: they remain crystallized in a world that will never grow old. Yet, those very dreams live on and unfold every day through the words, reflections, and creativity of the children and young people to whom we offer, through our projects, a blank canvas to paint. Lucrezia was our daughter. Together with Giulia, our second child, we founded this organization. We did so to transform an immense pain into a promise of the future, so that we could give to so many children and young people what destiny prevented us from continuing to give to her.
