The Andrea Bocelli Foundation- Ente Filantropico - was founded in 2011 by the Bocelli family after they were inspired by the love and positivity of Andrea Bocelliâs fans and partners around the world. Our mission is to empower people and communities in situations of poverty, illiteracy and suffering due to disease and social exclusion by promoting and supporting national and international projects to help people overcome these barriers and express their full potential. Since 2011 ABF has funded the construction of 9 schools in Italy and Haiti, thereby allowing over 3,500 students to gain access to education. Every day, ABF guarantees access to drinking water to over 400,000 people and provides basic health care in 5 of the most remote and impoverished communities in Haiti. Furthermore, the ABF implements and promotes educational projects that use music as an additional element for social inclusion and the enhancement of talent in line with goal 4.7 of the United Nationâs 2030 Agenda.
