The Rialto Bridge spans the Grand Canal in the city of Venice. As one of the most iconic historical bridges in the world, it provides a representative symbol of the ideals and objectives of our programme.
The Rialto Project aims to bridge the education divide of historical disadvantage in South Africa, giving deserving children from compromised backgrounds access to world-class education, opportunities and support through a structured bursary programme. In doing so, we aim to change the lives of the individuals, their families and communities.
The Rialto Project currently supports five high-school students in the Western Cape.
The Rialto Project is presently funded by four corporate sponsors who have collectively committed more than R2 million to the programme.
