Testimonials
The foundation recognizes the cooperative's great motivation and strong spirit of
entrepreneurship and innovative research in exploring new frontiers and visions of culture,
project planning, and tools for the social inclusion of people with disabilities. Margherita is in
every way a research center, founded on people, especially women, who are extremely
convinced and competent, regardless of the role they play.
The center in Gaia is a big family that welcomes our elderly with love and friendliness,
giving them "a new lease on life." The skilled operators are always ready with a smile to solve
In the educators, I found great professionalism, prepared individuals who are a
point of reference not only for us animators but also for the kids attending
Orchestra. It's not common to find people open to dialogue and willing to exchange
ideas with us. Our involvement makes us feel part of something.
Margherita is a center committed to the real social inclusion of people with disabilities. It is composed of
highly qualified professionals of great human quality. They are a reference for follow-up at
regional, national, and European levels. From Polibienestar, we are very grateful to be able to
count on their support and permanent collaboration in all activities of social interest.
The cooperative offers community welfare, introducing products and services that focus on
our community and allow for the enhancement of its economic and social sustainability. This
project fully aligns with our concept of social responsibility, which assumes that companies, local entities, and the third sector will increasingly be called upon to
collaborate to make shared and synergistic choices to support the community we live in,
as individual well-being also depends on an effective and efficient community network.
We are very happy with the work being done with the children: the organization of the
afternoon activities is impeccable, and the relationship between the cooperative's educators and the
primary school teachers has always been close and aimed at ensuring that the after-school program
is in continuity with the morning's educational activities.
When I was offered to give a new experience to a girl with disabilities, I must
say that the first thing I thought was: "Why not? I can be useful and do
something for someone!" What you feel enriches you inside; the joy of helping, seeing
the expression of a person who feels important to others
and the spontaneity with which they do it fills me with joy.
Our center in Sandrigo is very important for us elderly of a certain age: it makes us feel
important. We participate enthusiastically in the proposals of our kind ladies who, besides
caring for us, follow us with love.
A place with fantastic people
Attention to the person with quality and professionalism.
"With the onset of my father's illness, my family and I chose to seek help and
as I have often said, as a privileged person, I was fortunate to enter the family of
Coop. Margherita and specifically into the family unit of the In Gaja center.
From the start, I found understanding, sensitivity, professionalism, and preparation; I found people
who, gently and quietly, became part of the daily life
of my family in managing the issues we faced."
"The inspiration came to me this morning when I read a musical piece by Jackson Browne, Walls and doors, which says: "Since the world began, one thing is certain: some build walls and some open doors." Well, Margherita is a cooperative that opens doors... that really wants to open them... even if sometimes it would be easier to leave them closed... to then cross them, look inside, decide, act, and even in difficulties find the beauty that is inside..."
"Thank you for facing this difficult time with seriousness and attention, providing your employees with all the necessary PPE from the start (which is not always easy) and now also monitoring operational procedures.
A warm greeting to you and all the employees of Cooperativa Margherita who continue to operate in our communities, offering a quality public service as well as a sign of closeness."
I have appreciated and continue to appreciate your cooperative because, in my opinion, it knows how to cooperate. It's easy to create a cooperative to provide jobs, but it's much more complex to give back to the community of which one is a part the internal wealth that a cooperative has. I believe that Cooperativa Margherita is not just someone who does their best in social health services but is a great presence in the community. The "Margherita in Festa" event shows how not only your actions as social health professionals provide a service but also how you have the desire to blend the culture of your community with those ideas of solidarity, quality of life, well-being, and possibilities that you have discovered within your identity of care. Cooperativa Margherita carries with it a very strong identity of care.
