What is the Adventum Foundation?

The Adventum Onlus Foundation was established in 1995 by the Italian Union of Seventh-day Adventist Christian Churches to respond to situations of over-indebtedness related to usury risk. Adventum collaborates with institutions and the association world.

The Adventum Foundation focuses on prevention of usury and over-indebtedness, and the service it offers is totally free.

Over-indebtedness is the difficult situation that arises when a debtor can no longer sustain his or her previous obligations to creditors.

This condition can lead the person to fall into the web ofusury.
