Arché was founded in Milan in 1991 by Father Giuseppe Bettoni for the purpose of looking after children and families afflicted by AIDS. Today, we face new sufferings affecting minors as a result of serious social problems or illnesses. The aim of Arché is to promote the wellbeing of these minors and their families, and avoid their being labelled as a problem, a disease, a mistake. We operate in collaboration with the Services and Institutions of the areas which we serve, planning our activities alongside them, both in Italy and abroad. We operate in Milan, Rome, S. Benedetto del Tronto, Kisii (Kenya) and Chikuni (Zambia).
