town overlooking Lake Maggiore, where Dutch industrialist <strong>Robert Hollman (Maastricht 1890 &#8211; Cannero Riviera 1972)<\/strong> decided to move in the latter part of his life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love for Italy, sensitivity and concern for the frail were the motivations that led the Dutch merchant to <strong>leave much of his estate to establish a private, nonprofit foundation to care for the visually impaired.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After his death on Dec. 28, 1972, his testamentary wishes were carried out and made possible the opening in 1979, in Cannero Riviera, of the &#8220;Pilot Center for Blind and Multidisabled Children,&#8221; one of the first of its kind in Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1986, due to an accidental fire, the Center was temporarily relocated to Padua to a wing made available by the Institute for the Blind &#8220;Luigi Configliachi.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the conclusion of reconstruction work in 1988, at the behest of the Foundation&#8217;s Board of Directors, the Padua Center nevertheless remained in operation in order to expand the Foundation&#8217;s services in collaboration with social-health institutions in the area with which fruitful synergies had already been established.<br\/>In 2004, the Padua Center was moved to a new, modern and larger facility that could accommodate more children and families through the provision of more services and care pathways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-icon-list uagb-block-aee8c543 uagb-icon-list__outer-wrap uagb-icon-list__layout-vertical\"><div
