Our “Four Educational wheels”: music, theatre, volunteering
and sports
Fondazione Centri Giovanili Don Mazzi aims to develop and offer
activities and projects for disadvantaged youth. It was founded in
2012.
Fondazione Centri Giovanili Don Mazzi evolves from Exodus Charity Foundation’s values. Exodus
Foundation was founded in the early 80s by Don Antonio Mazzi and carries out prevention programmes,
assistance and reintegration treatment for drug addicts and/or youth suffering from other forms of social
hardship. It also runs educational and training courses for school teachers of all grades, for parents and
educators, as well as specialised courses targeted to teenagers and young children.
Fondazione Centri Giovanili Don Mazzi works closely with many
Youth Centres across the country.

• new Youth Centre in Verona
Fondazione Centri Giovanili Don Mazzi
Our youth center (MOE'S) and headquarters in Cavriana
(Mantua)
As a result of a consistent promotion of a variety of youth
activities, our youth centre (‘Moe’s) has created a strong network
of partnerships with associations and administrations not only at
a local level, in the area of Mantua, Verona and Brescia but also at
a national level.
Examples of such activities carried out at our youth centre in
Cavriana:
 Sports events
 Cultural events
 Workshops for parents, teachers and youth
 Concerts and musical events featuring famous artists
The main goals of our youth centre are to raise awareness of
disadvantaged youth, prevent use of drugs among the youth and
combat the emerging problem of bullying.
