Who we are

We are a non-profit ETS
(Third Sector Organisation)
working in Africa

Our association was born from the shared passion of a group of friends, inspired by Simone Schippa, a firefighter with a deep love for Africa and a strong passion for travel.

After years of profound, life-changing experiences in countries such as Congo, Uganda, Tanzania, Madagascar and Rwanda, Simone decided to turn his dedication into something concrete.

Thanks to the fundamental and crucial support of his friends Marco, Camilla and Romina, our association was born with the aim of bringing hope and tangible help to the African communities that touched our conscience.

 

Africa is a continent of extraordinary contrasts and beauty, marked by extreme poverty and a great need for support, and we try to ease these harsh situations together with all our friends, big and small.
Our shared goal is to bring our contribution to the villages, to every orphaned or malnourished child and to families in need.

We develop local initiatives supporting education, welfare and healthcare, offering our support and our time in person, directly in the project areas.

We put volunteer journeys first, as direct testimony of the projects the association carries out to ease the dramatic situation
of those populations and to see the reality of those areas with our own eyes.

Our Values

We believe every child deserves to grow up healthy and with dignity.

That is why we are committed to promoting the education and independence of the youngest, convinced that education is the key to a bright and sustainable future.

Our dream is to create, in Zambia and Gambia, schools that are much more than simple places of learning.

We want to build safe spaces where children can receive not only an education, but also healthcare and nutritional support, so that they can grow up strong and confident in tomorrow.

We are united by a common goal: giving those less fortunate the opportunities they deserve, building a better future through concrete actions rooted in the heart of the territory.

SimonAndFriendsXAfrica is a non-partisan and non-denominational association.

Inspired by the principles of solidarity, subsidiarity, democracy and pluralism.

All actions and initiatives undertaken, present and future, comply with the principles of International Law and with Legislative Decree 117/2017 (Third Sector Code).
