Health Abroad

Mission Bambini’s involvement in the field of Health abroad began in 2000, in synergy with the projects supported in the field of Education: the aim is to guarantee an adequate level of mental and physical well-being to the same children who have been placed on an educational program.

Since 2005, the Foundation has also been engaged in the world’s poorest countries with projects to save the lives of children with heart disease and improve the health of the population by supporting local hospitals and nursing staff.
