About us
The Association “La Chimera” (lo statuto) was set up in 2020 by three friends, who have always dedicated themselves to social issues.
Our passion becomes our job and we have decided to set up the Association in order to help the different social communities that are present in Rome. We commit ourselves to share our different but complementary skills in the complex area of Torpignattara.
