Fausto De Stefani was the sixth mountaineer in the world to climb all the eight-thousanders and he has always been involved in volunteer work. He is indeed responsible for devising and promoting the project “A school in Nepal - Rarahil Memorial School”, currently attended by 730 pupils. In October 2012 two new buildings were inaugurated next to the school: a doctor’s surgery dedicated to the mountaineer Giuliano De Marchi and an artisan workshop: further proof of generosity and intelligent commitment in favour of the weak, also made possible thanks to the support of many people who believe in De Stefani’s project in Italy.
