Testimonials

  • Portrait Herr Lemoine

    Statement by Mr. Lemoine – financial beneficiary

    When I received the €20,000 check for my small organic bakery, I could hardly believe it. Lisabeth Rizzo told me, “Build something that benefits others.” Thanks to her, I was able to buy a traditional bread oven and hire two apprentices. Every morning, when I put the bread in the oven, I think of her generosity.

  • Verein Kunst und Hoffnung

    Statement from the "Kunst und Hoffnung" Association beneficial owner

    We have received a complete collection of antique paintbrushes, canvases, and historic easels from Parisian studios of the 1920s. Ms. Lisabeth Rizzo explained that each piece was intended to encourage young artists. Today, our students’ artwork helps fund programs for underprivileged children.

  • Portrait Frau Rivière

    Statement by Ms. Rivière – Beneficiary of real estate

    When we heard that we could move into one of the houses in Bordeaux for free and set up a cultural center there, we were speechless. Madame Lisabeth Rizzo’s houses have been transformed into a library, an art gallery, and an artists’ residence.
