No One Out

What No One Out does

NO ONE OUT ETS is an Italian nonprofit organization headquartered in Brescia, Italy, registered as an Ente del Terzo Settore (ETS) under RUNTS number 29821. Formed in 2020 through the merger of two historic Brescian NGOs — SVI (Servizio Volontario Internazionale, founded 1969) and SCAIP (Servizio Collaborazione Assistenza Internazionale Piamartino, founded 1983) — the organization delivers international cooperation and development projects across 8+ countries in Eastern Africa (Kenya, Mozambique, Uganda), Latin America (Brazil, Venezuela), Southern Europe (Albania), Eastern Europe (Ukraine), and Southeast Asia (Philippines). Its programs target vulnerable and peripheral communities through multi-sectoral programming spanning food security, maternal and child nutrition, HIV/AIDS prevention, vocational training, smallholder agriculture and value chains, disability inclusion, and economic empowerment for micro and small enterprises. A Board of Directors (CDA) led by President Paolo Romagnosi governs the organization, with a permanent Italian staff of approximately 20 (direction, administration, foreign programs, fundraising, communication, Global Citizenship Education) and 12+ expatriate staff in country offices.

The organization's business model is a faith-inspired Italian NGO revenue stack: (i) institutional project grants from AICS (Agenzia Italiana per la Cooperazione allo Sviluppo), CEI (Conferenza Episcopale Italiana), Otto per Mille della Chiesa Valdese, and MAECI (Ministero degli Affari Esteri); (ii) high-volume small-amount private donations via website, PayPal, Satispay, bank transfer, postal payment, and standing orders, plus legacy bequests; (iii) the 5xmille Italian tax designation; (iv) event-driven fundraising via the annual FOCSIV 'Abbiamo riso per una cosa seria' rice campaign and street stalls; and (v) charitable retail including handmade Peruvian and African Christmas cards (€1 to €770 bulk pricing). Distribution is a dual-rail model: parish and Diocesi di Brescia networks in Italy drive grassroots fundraising, while in-country offices and local NGO partners (Medicus Mundi Italia, CBM Italia Onlus, WOFAK, Kuvanga Cooperativa, UCAA, NARO, CoRSu Hospital, Girl Child Network, Deaf Empowerment Kenya) execute field operations. No proprietary technology platform exists; one notable technology-adjacent initiative was the COVID-19 '3D for the Future' partnership with ISINNOVA to deliver 3D-printed prosthetics and ventilator components to developing-country hospitals.

In April 2026, NO ONE OUT voted with five peer Italian NGOs (Amici dei Popoli, Apurimac, CEFA, Centro Mondialità Sviluppo Reciproco CMSR, Missione Calcutta) to create Terraperta — Fondazione di Partecipazione, a unified participatory foundation planned to launch after summer 2026 and operate in 20 countries. The transparency ranking (91%, Open Cooperazione 2023) and FOCSIV membership provide reputational credibility, while the terrestrial scale of projects — direct beneficiary counts of 63,012 for Greening Uganda, 81,020 for CCM Mozambique, 42,102 for InJob Kenya TVET, and 26 projects funded via the FOCSIV rice campaign — signals operational breadth but no public revenue or financial disclosure is available in the input data.
