Our Missions

What we do

Five missions, one town

The ARD does not fund from afar. Each mission starts from a need voiced in Rosso. It is built with the town council and local associations. It ends with a public account of the results.

The five areas answer one another: a renovated school without a canteen is only half useful, and a school garden feeds as much as it teaches.
