An Investment in the Future

Supporting Local Healthcare

ELFO has made a major donation to the Maternity Ward of the Piacenza Local Health Authority (AUSL) for the acquisition of Super OB Susie—an advanced, high-fidelity medical simulator. This state-of-the-art tool allows delivery room staff to simulate and practice all childbirth procedures and complex obstetric-gynecological scenarios.

This technological investment will play a critical role in medical training and personnel preparedness, drastically enhancing team capabilities—particularly in managing high-risk emergency situations.

A Window into the Future

+Opportunità

For two years running, ELFO has been supporting top-performing high school graduates from the provinces of Piacenza, Lodi, Pavia, and Parma. We provide comprehensive scholarships designed to cover tuition fees for both Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programs, opening new horizons for the region’s brightest young minds.

Scholarships

+Orizzonti

This scholarship program is dedicated to families with children facing learning difficulties, residing in the provinces of Piacenza, Lodi, Pavia, and Parma. The initiative is designed to contribute to school enrollment and tuition expenses at both public and state-accredited private institutions.

It provides tangible financial support to ensure that families can guarantee a tailored educational path for their children, addressing their unique learning needs with the specialized attention they require.

Corporate well-being

Employee Solidarity Fund

This dedicated fund has been established to cover school and university expenses for the children of any colleague within the Group who should tragically experience the loss of a parent.

This initiative goes far beyond the traditional framework of employee welfare; it is a profound, tangible commitment designed to provide financial stability and show deep solidarity with our people when they face times of ultimate hardship.

Obiettivi concreti e misurabili

Open-es

Open-es is the digital platform designed to measure, benchmark, and elevate ESG performance. It provides standardized metrics, a transparent evaluation model, and a guided path to help organizations achieve their sustainability targets.

To date, ELFO’s sustainability score significantly outperforms the industry average against our benchmark. However, we have no intention of standing still: our goal is to continuously improve, driving even higher standards of corporate sustainability.

A Day for Others

Silver Day 2025

For the first time, on the occasion of Silver Day, we stepped outside our daily routine with a shared desire to do something meaningful and impactful for several key non-profit organizations in our local community.

In truth, the exact opposite happened: thanks to their extraordinary welcome, dedication, and hard work, it was these organizations that gave us a priceless experience—one that deeply enriched and inspired every one of us.

Our heartfelt thanks go to Unicoop, La Ricerca Piacenza, A.Fa.Di., Il Germoglio Piacenza, Caritas Piacenza-Bobbio, and Associazione ASSOFA ONLUS Piacenza.

We also want to extend our warmest thanks and a special mention to 21Grammi® for making our experience truly extraordinary!

We are proud to have shared such a meaningful day with all of them, and we return to our work more aware, inspired, and motivated than ever. This initiative has raised awareness across our entire team and, we are certain, will serve as a launchpad for all ELFO employees who wish to engage in social volunteering but had not yet found the right cause to support.
