COVID-19 Action
In response to a request from the City of Milan, La Cordata created ZumBimbi, an emergency daycare center for the children whose parents have been hospitalized with COVID-19. ZumBimbi welcomes young children from Milan and other youth from the Lombardy region.
"ZumBimbi" is a play on words: "Zumbini" is the name of the street where the daycare is located, and "Bimbi" means "child" in Italian. ZumBimbi seeks to provide a welcoming space while respecting health and safety recommendations.
Thanks to donations from organizations like the Artelia Foundation, La Cordata was able to provided tablets to the ZumBimbi project in order to support the children's continued education. The tablets enable the project's employees to accompany the children's morning lessons, and allows volunteers to contribute to online tutoring.
