Fondazione Compagnia di San Paolo

The Fondazione Compagnia di San Paolo was founded in Torino in 1563 as a charitable brotherhood and is one of Europe's most important private foundations. The Foundation participates in society's activities by pursuing ends that are of public interest and social utility, with the aim of favoring civil, cultural, and economic development in the community in which it is active. The Foundation's activities are financed with the income produced by the estate over the course of centuries and which the Compagnia has the task to pass on intact to future generations. The Compagnia is a member of the European Foundation Centre and of ACRI, the Italian Association of Foundations of banking origin.
