Description
The project seeks to address two major problems. One of them is that based on the Hungarian Law the Local Government shall deliver the homeless life as irregular situation and parallel, they do not provide satisfying living possibility to the homeless people. The second problem we are looking for a solution to, is the negative attitude coming from the majority of the society towards the homeless people.In the focus of our program is the criminality and the negative stereotypes against the homeless people.To highlight the attention to these kind of problems we are planning to put in place peaceful activity lines and appearance in the online media. Our long term project is strengthening the acceptance of our society and sensitization of the decision makers.During the project we are panning to have peaceful activities, in which our volunteers may have a picnic together with the homeless people. These activities are going to be accompanied by an online media campaign. This „Gerilla Picnic” action line will be taken place with the participation of 50-80 volunteers and 20-40 homeless. We would like to involve young volunteers of the „fifty hours volunteering project”, whom we have already got connected during our community works. The most important message of the program is the sensitization of these young volunteers and highlighting the attention of more than ten thousand people. About our association it is relevant to mention the continuously increasing number of our supporters, sympathizers.
