About the ITHICA Foundation

When in the ancient legend of Homer, the Greek King Odessey is sailing home after the Troyan war, also called the war of all wars as it wrecked both soldiers and citizens, he is heading for his homeland Ithaca. On his quest he realises every day again that only his Ithaca will give him the comfort he is looking for and where his wife Penelope is waiting for 20 years in a bedroom where the tree they planted before he left as a young man, is now growing through the roof.

Life is all about communities in which families and individuals of all ages are included, in which we feel safe, and in which we find food, water, shelter, education and medical assistance.

The ITHICA Foundation was founded on the simple premise of “DOING GOOD”, helping communities in which families and individuals of all ages are included, where they can feel safe, and in which there is adequate food, water, sanitation, power, shelter, education and medical assistance.

So many people on this earth are deprived of one or more of the essential ingredients that make life complete and that is where The Ithaca Foundation can make a difference, helping communities through out the world.

The ITHICA Foundation will to help bring agri-business technology to Africa, help with reforestation in the Amazon, and the creation of Generation Housing for the elderly in Europe, and so much more. Our partners all share the same vision on coherence in the local communities they build and serve. Every society and generation has its own issues. The ITHACA Foundation and its partners are determined to find long term solutions that will improve peoples lives not only today but for generations to come.
