Adriano Agosti founded the Agosti Foundation in 2011 with a clear aim: to give children with fewer opportunities access to education and the chance of a better life.
The idea grew out of his own path. He began as a master painter in his family's business in Zurich and spent more than four decades building companies, and along the way he came across many communities where young people lacked the most basic opportunities. Grateful for his own four children, he wanted to give something back.
Today the Foundation supports projects in Latin America, Europe, Asia and Africa, through established organisations, local partners and direct funding.
