On September 10, 1987, ten citizens met before a notary to sign the articles of association of the then called “Margherita Soc. Coop., Based in piazza Marconi in Sandrigo. The company, which was created to facilitate access to the work with disadvantaged people, subsequently developed as a type A cooperative, dedicating itself “to the management of socio-health, training and lifelong learning services.”
On November 21, 2016, the convocation of an extraordinary meeting marks another important stage: Cooperativa Margherita changes its corporate name and statute becoming Margherita Società Cooperativa Sociale Onlus, while keeping its purpose, objective and duration unchanged.
The relocation to the new office in the same year marks the move of the registered office to Via Attilio Andretto n. 7, still in Sandrigo.
Cooperativa Margherita is today:
- A company because it carries out professionally organized economic activities with the goal of producing services for the individual and the community.
- Cooperative because it plans and works with the active participation of all its members.
- Social because it operates with the awareness of exercising a public function, facing issues regarding the individual and the family, whilst looking for solutions that involve and are useful to the whole community.
