The SO.LA.RE. Onlus was set up on February 2016 by a group of people with different work experiences and skills animated by the desire to put themselves at the service of those who have been "less fortunate". The activity of the Association is aimed at supporting the "new poverties": 1. families with lack of income because of the loss of work of one or more of its members; 2. unemployed young people in poor economic conditions, so called "NEET" (Not in education, employment or training).
