SALVADORI'S SOCIAL COMMITMENT CONTINUES WITH THE PROJECT IN SUPPORT OF KENYA

In addition to the project in support of Italy for the Covid emergency, we have chosen to embrace another project in collaboration with ActionAid. This time moving to Kenya. Improving the food and nutrition security of 10 shepherds and agro-shepherds communities, in particular women and other vulnerable groups, from the country of Isiolo, through the strengthening of sustainable sources of subsistence, contributing to the strengthening of resilience to climate and market shocks in the Arid Areas and Semi Arid (ASAL) of Northern Kenya.

Part of the sales of Salvadori jewellery has always supported humanitarian projects in collaboration with ActionAid, an international non-governmental organization who fights alongside the poorest and most marginalized communities in the world.

The project will invest in the diversification of sources of subsistence, involving communities that have already started the transition to agro-pastoralism.

With the second component, the sustainability of the beneficiaries’ traditional livelihoods (in particular livestock farming) will be increased, through the introduction of an integrated natural resource management model.

The third component will aim to remove political/institutional obstacles to rural community development by promoting constructive dialogue between beneficiaries and their associations and representatives of local authorities at the county and, to a lesser extent, national level.

Thanks to the integrated action of these three components, it will be possible to improve the food and nutrition of 10 shepherds and agro-shepherds, in particular women and other vulnerable groups, from the country of Isiolo, through the strengthening of sustainable sources of subsistence, contributing to the strengthening of resilience to climate and market shocks in the Arid Areas and Semi Arid (ASAL) of Northern Kenya.

Thanks to this project, the different groups that are in conditions of extreme poverty and marginalization due to the particular socio-economic and climatic conditions of the intervention area, will be able to improve their situation.

Purchasing a Salvadori piece of jewellery is also a gift of love: part of the proceeds supports humanitarian projects in collaboration with ActionAid to give hope and a smile to people in need.

COVID PROJECT IN SUPPORT OF ITALY, COLLABORATION WITH ACTIONAID TO STRENGTHEN THE SYSTEM OF PROTECTION AND PROTECTION OF THE MOST VULNERABLE FAMILIES

For several years, part of the proceeds from the sale of Salvadori piece of jewellery have supported humanitarian projects in collaboration with ActionAid, an international non-governmental organization that fights alongside the poorest and most marginalized communities in the world.

The current health emergency is accentuating inequalities and exposing the most vulnerable to much higher health, economic and social risks. The demand for basic necessities, such as food, hygiene products, medicines and other health products, is increasing.

We have chosen to collaborate in the intervention with ActionAid to strengthen the system of protection and safeguarding of the most fragile families during the health emergency and in the post-emergency, in Italy.

The institutions’ response is not enough and local actors are unable to respond to the increase and complexity of these needs. The goal of this program is to strengthen the system of protection and safeguarding of the most fragile families, in particular made up of women, children, the elderly and disabled during the emergency and post-emergency. The areas of intervention selected are those of Corsico (Milan) and Naples.

In these two cities, social distancing measures and the suspension of non-essential productive activities have led many people to lose their jobs, which are often precarious and occasional. These are foreign and Italian people who belong to mostly single-income and often single-parent families, who were previously in difficult situations. The socio-economic consequences of the health crisis on these most vulnerable groups of the population are causing real emergencies.

By supporting ActionAid projects we can ensure counseling activities, food supplies, pharmaceuticals and basic necessities for families.

THE PURCHASE OF A SALVADORI JEWEL , WHILE CELEBRATING A HAPPY MOMENT IN OUR CUSTOMERS’ LIVES , ALSO PERMITS ANOTHER IMPORTANT GIFT OF LOVE.

Part of the proceeds from the sale of your jewel are used by Salvadori to support humanitarian projects in collaboration with Actionaid, a non-governmental international organization that helps the poorest and most marginalized communities in the world. After helping improving the health and education conditions of children aged six to fifteen living in the provinces of Koh Kong and Kampot in Cambodia, guaranteeing them nine years of basic education, this year Salvadori, together with his clients, helped Actionaid to initiate a new project.

Thanks to your purchases, we will support building the Bhuwaneshwori Pra Vi Primary school in the Rasuwa district of Nepal. It will be a one-story building with four classrooms and equipped with separate toilets for girls and children. The school will host fifty children; fifteen of them, under five years of age, will attend the equivalent of our kindergarden. The other thirty-five will be equally distributed between first, second and third grade classes.

These are children who survived the two strong earthquakes that hit Nepal on April 25 and May 12, 2015, during which more than 8,000 people died and more than 20,000 were injured, with devastating consequences throughout the country. Because of organisational problems and difficult access conditions – many villages are located at more than 3,000 meters high surrounded by forests, glaciers and perennial snows- , rescue efforts were slow to arrive and even today help is still needed in those areas. Especially for children who lost family protection and are even more exposed to risks such as child labor, child trafficking, forced prostitution, sexual violence and forced marriages. Situations unfortunately already present in the country but strongly worsened after these earthquakes. For this reason, the protection of these children was one of the main priorities for Actionaid Nepal, which immediately created spaces for child socialisation and play, shelters and temporary schools. Indeed, schools represent not only a place to guarantee to every child the right to quality education, but also a safe place to grow up healthyly.

Through the creation of each Salvadori jewel, we may be able to give a hope and a smile to those who have lost everything and need the help of someone, anywhere in the world.
