“If God would have a singing voice, he must sound a lot like Andrea Bocelli”…Canadian Superstar Celine Dion
“Andrea Bocelli has the most beautiful voice in the world”…Record Producer David Foster
Besides being one of the world’s most sought after celebrities, BOCELLI is such a pure heart and a straight giver: his love for children and people overall is unmatched. 9 years ago, he founded the ANDREA BOCELLI Foundation to empower people and communities and pave the way for a next generation of children full of life but lacking opportunities. His wife Veronica and himself have fully embraced this mission by walking the walk and talking the talk in showing the rest of us that fame and privileges are given to us not for our own selfish glory, but to impact as many people around us as we possibly can.
The Andrea Bocelli Foundation:
* has built 9 schools in its 9 years of existence,
* provides access to quality education to over 3,000 children,
* distributes over 21,000 gallons of water daily
* provides access to basic healthcare to over 8,000 individuals

The Italian nonprofit has teamed up with BERVANN Foundation since last May to provide COVID-19 Relief to healthcare institutions and individuals affected by the pandemic. Both charities held a very successful first edition GALA in May and are warming up to produce an even better one in 24 hours!
The BERVANN Foundation:
A US nonprofit organization founded by the New York investment holding BERVANN to Drive Increased Care and Charitable Giving from the Business and Investment Communities to Give Back and Support Underprivileged Communities across the United States and Africa.
BERVANN Foundation, a charity mostly known for grant-making since 2018 found itself in active social operations as an unprecedented pandemic hit the world in February. The organization openly offered to leverage the extensive resources of its parent company to help any Government institution in need of support (A Governor seeking to spread the right message to his citizens, a hospital seeking to source the proper equipment from a very challenging Chinese environment, a community of small businesses and entrepreneurs desperately in need to save or reinvent their future post-pandemic, a nonprofit with inspiring impact mission lacking financial and infrastructural support…You Name It).
BERVANN found itself at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19 and Minorities Empowerment. The nonprofit received the green light from its parent company’s stakeholders to do what it takes and what is necessary to help as many entities as it possibly can. Since February 2020, the BERVANN Foundation has established and is operating several programs:
* Bervann for Charities
provides funding and strategic support to other nonprofit organizations with impactful missions.
* Bervann COVID-19 Relief Fund
provides Medical and Personal Protective equipment to Healthcare professionals globally and helps US Small businesses pivot and repurpose post-pandemic. Provided Technical Support, PPE or Financial Assistance to over 600 healthcare institutions and 24 government entities in 2020.
* Bervann Minority Fund
– provides funding and mentorship to small businesses with at least 1 minority decision maker across the US.
– sponsors mental counselling, mentorship and financial assistance for minority young people in inner cities across the US.
* Bervann ONE-KID-AT-A-TIME
sponsors the primary school, high-school and university’s tuition fees for children from underprivileged backgrounds in Africa.
