Description

Segregation of farm inhabitants, the lack of community events and state financed opportunities – make self-organized civil initiatives necessary. Children in extreme poverty have limited chance to attend community events. In order to help to quit the self-reinforcing segregation process, we motivate them with making it possible for them to take responsibility for the community, develop sport talents, improve self-confidence. Self-knowledge, self-improvement and selfless community activities dissolve their frustration, partly compensate social handicaps and improve life quality. With local experts and civilians, our aim is to show an example and to ensure their right to equality, joy, health, sport. Our target group is children aged 6-12 and 13-16, also involving local families. We cooperate with 10 primary schools, councils, also with sport clubs, associations, implementers as well as civil volunteers of Békéscsaba. Headmasters and educators will help with recruitment and dormitory placements. Sport associations will help to organize trainings, and voluntary work.
