Costa Crociere Foundation starts selection process for Italian non-profit organisations funding
The Costa Crociere Foundation started the annual selection process reserved for Italian non-profit organizations engaged in the development of social improvement and marine environmental protection projects.

Up until February 14 this year or until the limit of 200 proposals is reached, any Italian non-profit organization operating in either of the Foundation’s areas of interest can take part in the call for proposals and submit their project.

The candidate projects will be examined by two Advisory Committees consisting of sector experts, while the final choice of the proposals to be funded will be made by the Foundation’s Executive Council.

In the social field, the priority areas for the allocation of funding in 2016 will be projects directed at women and at 'NEETs', young people who are Not (engaged) in Education, Employment or Training.  This year's environmental priorities are the prevention and reduction of marine pollution and atmospheric emissions.

The Costa Crociere Foundation is an independent organization which was set up in October 2014.
