With the support of Costa Crociere and its partners, the Costa Crociere Foundation aims to tackle tough social and environmental problems in Italian communities in order to give people a solid basis on which to build a better future.

Supported by funds from the Costa Crociere Foundation, six apartments in Genoa’s historic centre have been renovated and assigned to twelve people in need or homeless, including a family with children.

The renovation of the six apartments included cleaning, installation of heating systems, maintenance of kitchen and bathroom functions, as well as acquisition of mattresses, pillows, blankets, decorations and other essential items.
