The first funds for kindergartens were already being granted in the late nineteenth century for the children of employees and in 1931 an internal nursery school and after-school facility was set up in the fifteenth-century Bicocca degli Arcimboldi, at the very heart of the Pirelli Headquarters. In 1955, when the villa became the company\u2019s official reception venue, a new kindergarten was opened. It was built by the municipality with a fundamental contribution from Pirelli, and it was open not only to the children of employees but to all the children in the Bicocca district. Known as the <strong>Maria Pirelli kindergarten<\/strong>, it could take in 210 children, of whom 130 were the children of \u201cPirelliani\u201d. New modern premises were also set up as an after-school centre, in a building that was opened in 1956, taking in 100 children in two shifts, with three classrooms, a refectory, an atrium for recreation, a garden and a small sports field. Scholarships were awarded for older students through the Fondazione Giovan Battista Pirelli, which was established in 1932, and the Fondazione Piero e Alberto Pirelli, which started up in 1947.<\/p>\n<p>Camps were put on for the summer holidays, with the assistance of external organisations \u2013 as was the case with the camp in the <strong>Alpine village of Piambello<\/strong> (Varese), run by the Touring Club Italiano \u2013 or at Pirelli\u2019s own facilities: the <strong>heliotherapy colony<\/strong> on Lake Vimodrone, built in 1939, and the seaside <strong>colony in Pietraligure<\/strong>, which started up in 1947, with room for more than 300 children.<\/p>\n<p>Family support also included care for the elderly: in 1947 the Fondazione Piero e Alberto Pirelli purchased the Villa Porro Lambertenghi in <strong>Induno Olona<\/strong>, in the province of Varese, and converted it into a retirement home with the aim of \u201coffering the company\u2019s elderly workers a surety against loneliness and economic hardship\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Family support continues to this day with reserved places and discounts at the<strong> Bambini Bicocca nursery school<\/strong>, scholarships, contributions towards the purchase of school books and summer camps and study holidays, both in Italy and abroad. But there is also a support service for caregiver employees who assist a family member or relative who is not self-sufficient.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fondazionepirelli.org\/en\/exhibition\/a-company-for-people-pirelli-and-welfare\/\"><strong>Back to main page\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Right from the outset, Pirelli\u2019s focus on the wellbeing of its employees extended to their families as well.
