Fondazione Anffas Area Berica Onlus

What Fondazione Anffas Area Berica Onlus does

Fondazione Anffas Area Berica Onlus (legally Fondazione ANFFAS Area Berica ETS) is a nonprofit foundation registered in Italy's RUNTS (number 164354) that delivers social, healthcare, and educational services to young and adult people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families in the Basso Vicentino area of Vicenza province. Its operating footprint is anchored in Lonigo, with headquarters at Via Fiume 37 and a retail showroom, La Bottega di ANFFAS, at Via Quirico Rossi 52. The foundation is part of the broader ANFFAS movement, which it identifies as the first Italian association for the protection of rights of people with intellectual disabilities and from which it licenses the ANFFAS trademark via a resolution dated 19 February 2024.

Service delivery is built around three core authorized facilities: two day centers (Centri Diurni ANFFAS 1 and ANFFAS 2) with a combined 40 authorized places operating Monday–Friday 9:00–16:00; a residential community (Comunità Alloggio) with 18 places organized into two nuclei across two floors with external garden and pool; and a Vita Indipendente (independent living) program offering housing modules with educational and assistance staff support. These are supplemented by approximately 16 occupational, therapeutic, and recreational workshops (ceramics, cooking, woodworking, gardening, physiotherapy, recycled paper, assembly, theatrical laboratory with 15 productions since 1997, an ecological laboratory in Lonigo for over a decade, a newsletter workshop, multi-modal communication, swimming and motor activity, outings, and summer stays).

The business model is a hybrid of public funding and private donations. Core operating revenue comes from service contracts with the Az. Ulss (local health authority) for the authorized day and residential places. This is supplemented by 5x1000 Italian tax-designation income (fiscal code 95067870246) and direct donations from individuals and businesses (IBAN IT33H0200860451000110013862), which are tax-deductible under Italian law. La Bottega generates incremental, smaller-scale revenue through the sale of handmade crafts produced during the workshops. No revenue figures, headcount, or financial performance metrics are disclosed in the available source material.
