THE PROJECTS
In Northern India, it has worked in favor of Tibetan children who emigrated to escape the oppression of the Chinese government, crossing the Himalayas, deprived of their land, language, and culture. For them, Costa Family Foundation designed and built House 13, an orphanage home, inside the Tibetan Children’s Village of Dharamsala (TCV) and an entire floor within the TCV college university of Bangalore.
In Togo, the Foundation chose to sponsor the children of Maristella and Sister Patrizia, giving them the possibility to study and attend school, in the hope of a better future.
In Uganda, it launched two green projects in cooperation with the indigenous community in Karamoja and Mukono.
