Filling a gap by filling it with the future
The passing of a loved one, a partner, or a friend and colleague deeply affects those closest to them and the community in which they lived and grew up. These losses create a void - a void that can, in part, be filled through a gesture of altruism and solidarity toward the future.
With this spirit in mind, the ad memoriam fundraising campaigns were created. Their purpose is to establish tuition waivers and scholarships that honor and pass on to new generations the values of those who are no longer with us, while providing opportunities for growth and achievement to young people who have merit and talent but may lack the necessary means.
Between 2021 and 2022, Bocconi University promoted four such campaigns, each dedicated to supporting new generations in memory of Alumni and friends who held a special connection with the University.
— The fundraising campaign in memory of Luca Attanasio (Business Administration, 2001).
— The fundraising campaign in memory of Luca Felli (Economics, 1991).
— The fundraising campaign in memory of Maya Yazbeck.
— The fundraising campaign in memory of Mario Buffo (MBA 35).
— The fundraising campaign in memory of Alberto Alesina (Economic and Social Sciences, 1981).
