San Donato Cooperativa Sociale

What San Donato Cooperativa Sociale does

San Donato Cooperativa Sociale is an Italian social cooperative (società cooperativa sociale) founded in 1981 and headquartered at Via Gaglianico 22, Turin. The organization delivers residential, territorial, and school-based educational and social services across more than ten municipalities in the Turin metropolitan area, organized into five service lines: services for minors (residential community Passoni18, home-based Educativa Domiciliare, school support, autonomy pathway Aquila28), services for youth (Progetto Collegno Giovani, Progetto Grugliasco Giovani, Piazza Ragazzabile, digital facilitation hubs), services for adults with disabilities (15 residential autonomy apartments, cohousing, residence, sport-based inclusion), services for Roma families (Servizio Rom across six municipalities), and community welfare initiatives (Portinerie di Quartiere, Housing First, Ovest Food Lab). Notable outcomes include 86 disability autonomy users (140 cumulative since 1998), approximately 28 active home-education cases per year, 2,000+ youth engaged over three years, and 12,305 kg of produce recovered through food-waste initiatives.

The cooperative operates without proprietary technology infrastructure, relying instead on standard office tools (Microsoft 365, Outlook, Gecos HR/payroll, WebDesk document management) plus a GDPR- and D.Lgs. 24/2023-compliant whistleblowing platform. Revenue is generated primarily through long-term public-sector contracts procured via the MePA platform (category 610 - Servizi Sociali Vari) with municipalities, public consortia (Consorzio Ovest Solidale, CIdiS), and ASL health authorities, supplemented by competitive grants from foundations (Compagnia di San Paolo, Fondazione CRT, Con i Bambini, Unicredit Foundation) and EU/regional programs (PNRR Misura 1.7.2, EU Connect for Global Change). The organization is member-owned with no external parent or institutional investors and operates on a mutualistic non-profit basis. As a social cooperative, financial reporting is published through bilancio sociale (social balance sheet) rather than public financial statements, and revenue is not publicly disclosed. The cooperative maintains ISO 9001:2015 certification, accreditation with Comune di Torino and ASL Città di Torino, and registration in the Albo delle società cooperative (A112390).
