Friendship, commitment, responsibility

The Ark project is born from a deep, loyal, friendship between father Guido, Roberto, and a small
(in the beginning) group of people in Kazakhstan and Italy; confident in the ability to build something real, concrete, and with a single aspiration: to give to children who have no one to take care of them, an opportunity for a different life.

The Ark project is a project of life. A full sharing of ideals and requirements, method and form.
It brings together life experiences of participation and service; the willingness and faith to progressively provide values, skills and knowledge in a spirit of sharing with others.

The Ark project is the result of the cooperation of:

– Uchrezhdenije Kovcheg, the Ark institution based in Almaty, Kazakhstan, which manages and coordinates the branch of the Ark Village, located in the neighboring city of Talgar.

– Associazione Arca Italia Onlus, the Ark association based in Milano, Italy, working with fund raising activities. The president is Roberto Depretis.
