Saving Italy's Forgotten Treasures
We restore endangered heritage sites, employ local master craftsmen, and maintain complete financial transparency — every euro tracked, every milestone verified.
Why Golden Roots Exists
Across Italy, thousands of historically significant buildings face collapse. Small villages cannot afford restoration. Ancient techniques are being lost as master craftsmen retire without apprentices.
Golden Roots Heritage Foundation was created to address this crisis. We identify endangered sites, fund their restoration through strict milestone-based grants, and ensure every project employs local artisans—preserving both buildings and the knowledge to maintain them.
Our work protects culture, supports local economies, and preserves identity for future generations.

Dying Crafts
