Donald "Don" De Sanctis

A man who has always valued people and the concept of the future as something to be built and developed.
An entrepreneur who has always believed in the value of the company, not only as an economic entity but also as an environment where professionals can be trained with ethical and moral values of respect and loyalty.

Together for a better future for vulnerable children and youth

The Fondazione Donald De Sanctis was established to preserve and carry forward the social values of generosity, care for others, and the desire to help the most vulnerable—values that defined the life of Don De Sanctis.

Through socio-healthcare initiatives, we support children and adolescents affected by chronic, oncological, cardiac, and rare diseases, offering them hope for healing and improved quality of life during treatment. At the same time, we promote educational, recreational, and sports programs aimed at youth in difficult situations, including those facing physical, psychological, social, or family challenges, helping them build confidence, skills, and a better future.

The Foundation is also committed to supporting the training of medical staff and scientific research in pediatrics to create a lasting and tangible impact on the health of children in need.

Every project we undertake is a way to keep alive the commitment and memory of Don, embodying the true spirit of philanthropy.
