ALPI Asociación Civil

What ALPI Asociación Civil does

ALPI Asociación Civil is a non-profit civil association (asociación civil sin fines de lucro) founded circa 1940 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, that delivers neuromotor and respiratory rehabilitation services to patients with neuro-orthopedic conditions, post-accident injuries, and disease-related disabilities. The organization operates an interdisciplinary clinical model spanning hospitalization, day hospital, and outpatient consultations at its central headquarters on Soler 3945 (CABA) and an outpatient branch at Salguero 669 (CABA), staffed by an interdisciplinary team of 500+ professionals across physiatry, physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, psychology, psychopedagogy, psychiatry, traumatology, hand surgery, and manual therapies.

Beyond clinical care, ALPI runs EMAE (Escuela Metropolitana de Altos Estudios), established in 1990 as the first non-university higher education institute in Latin America designed for people with motor and sensory disabilities. EMAE offers tertiary-level careers in nursing, surgical instrumentation, systems analysis, business administration, and web design and programming, with accessibility features including sign language interpreters and mobility accommodations. The organization's clinical infrastructure has been progressively modernized — most recently in 2020 with Day Hospital remodeling and Salguero property upgrades — and now includes a SMART Salud Intelligent Room with voice-controlled patient room automation (lighting, bed positioning, curtains, smart TV) and a Technology Room with multisensory stimulation systems combining touch devices, games, consoles, and interactive screens for linguistic, motor, and cognitive rehabilitation.

Revenue is generated through a hybrid non-profit model combining fee-for-service clinical care, tuition from EMAE educational programs, and a substantial charitable fundraising apparatus. The fundraising engine includes the annual Gala Anual Solidaria at Club Español, food service operations at the ExpoRural (60+ year partnership with Sociedad Rural Argentina) and at Argentine Polo Association events (since 1956, including HSBC-sponsored tournaments), and the Pequeños Donantes monthly donation program with electronic payment options. As a non-profit, ALPI has no public ticker, reports no disclosed revenue, and operates within a single metropolitan market (CABA).
