yex CHANGE > Social
People first
yex CHANGE has a strong connection with the Italian cultural identity, in fact it is aimed at tourists who come to our country to visit the many artistic treasures that make it famous in the world. To support the Italian cultural heritage we have given a positive contribution to the communities we feel we are part of, namely those close to the places where our exchange agencies are located.
The supported projects are among the interventions proposed by Art Bonus of the Ministry of Culture, urgent measures to promote cultural patronage.
