Help us help others
Caring Wings is aprogram in which the Foundation, thanks to the donor’s regular financial support, provides a specific child with daily educational care, support in education, development of their personal passions, a good start in further life!
HOW DOES THE CARING WINGS PROGRAM WORK?
Through regular financial support of the Foundation’s activities, we can provide comprehensive, permanent and long-term assistance to children and young people. In family homes, children do not have the opportunity to receive adequate developmental support. The families of the wards struggle with inadequate material, legal conditions, addictions and other dysfunctions (including violence or lack of childcare). The consequences are developmental and educational delays in children. Thanks to the activities of the Foundation, children and adolescents learn to live with others based on mutual respect, closeness, proper communication.
They gain a different view of the world, acquire self-esteem. They begin to see the needs of others and learn to build relationships. Through these activities, the children receive a sense of security in the foundation house, gain self-confidence and the ability to create dreams and make them come true. They steal the hearts of others right away – their childlike sincerity, open-heartedness, authenticity and colorful personalities full of different colors fill the foundation houses.
