Fondazione De Rigo H.E.ART ETS Onlus sostiene la formazione dei giovani

The Project

In 2020, Fondazione De Rigo H.E.ART Onlus reaffirmed its commitment to education and the well-being of younger generations, strengthening its support for the families of De Rigo Group employees during a particularly challenging economic and social period.

Concrete support for families

On an exceptional basis, the Foundation extended its study grants to all children of employees of De Rigo Vision and De Rigo Refrigeration, going beyond the traditional merit-based model.
Each employee received a contribution for every child enrolled in upper secondary school or university. In total, 216 students benefited from the initiative, including 161 attending high school and 55 enrolled in university.

A shared moment, even at a distance

The award ceremony was held virtually through a live streaming event, bringing together the De Rigo family and the Group’s employees.
Special guest of the event was Leo Gassman, young artist and ambassador of the house brand ST!NG, who shared his educational and professional journey with the students, offering inspiration on topics such as personal growth, education, and social commitment.

A commitment to the future of young people

“Education, well-being, and health of young people are core values for our family, and Fondazione De Rigo H.E.ART ETS represents our concrete commitment,” said Barbara De Rigo, President of the Foundation.
“In such a challenging time, we wanted to support the right to education of our families. A small contribution that we hope will encourage young people to pursue their goals through study and personal development.”
