RANA FAMILY FOUNDATION

In 2010, the Rana Family Foundation was established, further demonstrating the social conscience of the entrepreneurship of Gian Luca Rana, CEO of Rana Group, who regards the company as a social glue that can improve the quality of life of the community.
The goal of the Foundation is the development and promotion of social projects that put the value of the individual at the centre, coordinating acts of solidarity in complete transparency in various fields: scientific research, culture, protection of the right to education, social integration, support for fragile and marginalised people. A precious focus is also represented by the appreciation of Deaf Culture, with a particular emphasis on the dissemination of the Italian Sign Language.

DONATED PRODUCTS

We undertake to encourage access to food for people in most difficulty and that’s why we support many charitable organisations every year at the global level, donating our products. In 2022, we donated more than 323 tons of fresh products.

Collaboration with the food bank

In five years, through the food bank Banco Alimentare, we donated 14 million fresh meals to those who cannot afford to buy them. Our social campaigns have made it possible for consumers to make a gesture of solidarity: from the cart to the tables of the needy.

67 COLUMNS FOR THE ARENA OF VERONA

We believe that it is important to promote the cultural heritage and that's why in 2021 Gian Luca Rana became one of the founders of the project “67 columns for the Arena of Verona”, in support of the lyrical-symphonic Foundation after the difficulties caused by Covid-19.

DEAF CULTURE AND SIGN LANGUAGE

We value Deaf Culture, promoting the Italian Sign Language, ISL. Among many initiatives, we also contributed in 2022 to the staging of the ISL International Convention in Ragusa, in which 350 people took part from 11 different countries.

PAINTING WITH THE SOUL

For around 20 years, we have chosen to be at the side of a young deaf artist, Sofia Ines Musumano. We support her career and education with a constant interpretation service and we contribute to the organisation and promotion of her exhibitions.

SUSPENDED BASKET

We support Buster Basket’s “Suspended Basket” project, which enables disadvantaged kids to take part in sports. In 2022, we also contributed to the purchase of a dedicated vehicle for transporting the kids to BASKIN games (BASKet INclusive).

AWARENESS CAMPAIGN ABOUT VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

A society free of violence and gender stereotypes is a better society. To reinforce this message, we signed up for the project of the Verona Sud Rotary Club: a programme of meetings with outstanding female guests and a performance by Almar’à, an orchestra made up of 13 women of 8 nationalities.

SMILE HOUSE FOUNDATION

We support Smile House Foundation ETS, which helps children born with cranio-maxillofacial malformations to obtain specialist medical treatments. With our support, more than 20 operations have been carried out and medicines and equipment have been bought for medical stations.
