Borgorete

What Borgorete does

Borgorete Cooperativa Sociale is an Italian non-profit social cooperative (cooperativa sociale) organized as an Onlus under D.Lgs.460/97, founded in 1984 and headquartered in Perugia, Umbria. It designs and manages a broad portfolio of public social, health, and educational services across ten service areas: early childhood services (nurseries, children and family centers, summer camps), educational communities for minors, youth services, disability support, addiction services, mental health programs, anti-trafficking and social emergency response, work integration, and social housing. Each service area is delivered through named physical facilities and programs (e.g., Nido Kilipupu, Comunità Il Postiglione, CTR1 S. Sisto, Casa Kairos, Free Life, housing sociale) operated directly by the cooperative.

The business model is contract-driven public-sector service delivery: Borgorete operates as a contracted service provider for the Municipality of Perugia and provincial authorities, with financing derived primarily from public institutional contracts. A secondary, smaller revenue stream comes from private donations, including the Italian 5x1000 tax designation channel enabled by its Onlus status. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, consistent with regulated public-procurement contracting. Distribution is direct, via physical service locations rather than consumer channels.

Headcount is approximately 50 employees. The organization operates exclusively within the Umbria region (no international or multi-region footprint), and is supported by service vendors (TourTools for web, LuceGrigia for photography) and a mutual affiliation with Well Fare Sociale. Outreach is conducted through organic social channels (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), a corporate blog, and the Servizio Civile volunteer program. There is no disclosed AI/technology platform layer; service delivery is labor-intensive and operationally integrated rather than software-mediated.
