shall we study together?
The I CARE program, by CESVOT (the Tuscany Volunteer Service Center) and Fondazione CR Firenze, aims to support fragile families with school-age children in doing their schoolwork.
Through the provision of appropriate equipment and with the guidance and mentoring of university students, the children are supported in learning and carrying out their schoolwork, thus helping them to continue their schooling and education and reduce the educational deficiencies that emerged during the pandemic.
