Humanitarian initiatives

SISA has always been strongly committed on the social and ethical front through the realization of international projects and concrete contributions.

SISA is aware of the fundamental role that the enterprise has to develop within the Corporate Social Responsibility. SISA supports the project "Siria 2000" promoted by the “Associazione Bambini Cardiopatici nel Mondo" for the realization of a children heart surgery center at the Pediatric Hospital of Damask University. The project, which SISA supported with the construction of three storeys of the hospital, consists of creating a pediatric cardiology and heart surgery center.

The center, which will be endowed with two operating rooms, many beds and a bone marrow transplant unit, can cure children from the whole Middle East. The objective also calls for fostering hospital culture in a health structure able to offer state-of-the-art diagnostic and therapeutic service in the children heart diseases sector that will become a point of reference for the whole Middle East.

But charity experiences are not new for the Group: in fact, throughout the years, SISA has been giving generously to those in need through the support of various humanitarian initiatives. An important example of solidarity, was carried out in Arbaba, in Ethiopia, where the construction of the Villaggio del Fanciullo and a water well were completed. The center bears the name of Gianni Baldina, ex President of the Distribution Center Centro Nord, who has died in January 2001.

This project, which is of vital importance in a country where the water for drinking and washing is a true rarity, has brought much joy among the three thousand children that have found a home in the village. SISA’s on-going commitment aims to further improve the quality of life of the local population. In the meanwhile, in the great heat of Africa, in the small village of Arbabà, the children, thanks to SISA, are finally seeing their dream for a better life coming true.
