Morgan supports several projects focused to improve the employment opportunities for younger people, the economic integration of migrants and the most fragile sections of the population, and the resilience of small businesses.
The one between J.P. Morgan and Venice is an ancient bond, which goes back to the early twentieth century when John Pierpoint Morgan, founder of the bank and one of the best-known financiers of all time, contributed to the reconstruction of the San Marco’s bell tower, which collapsed in July 1902 returned to its former glory after a decade of onerous work in 1912.
This new contribution by J.P. Morgan in support of Venetian artistic craftsmanship and part of the philanthropic investments established
by the bank in response to the health and economic emergency due to Covid19 pandemic, in favor of families in difficulty and small businesses in sectors particularly affected by the health crisis.
