[completed project]
Before the 2017/2018 school year begins, Diaconia Poland launches the “Okna” project (in English “Window” project). With that initiative, the organization wishes to become a part of the celebration of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation.
The aim of this project is to support children and youth who need assistance in purchasing school supplies for the 2017/2018 school year, regardless their religious affiliation. It is addressed to pupils from primary school, secondary school and high school who are in difficult social situation or affected by random events. Its main purpose is the equalization of educational opportunities. 200 families in need of support have been proposed to be a part of this project.
The purchase of school essentials such as textbooks, necessary school clothing or periodic travel tickets will be funded.
Together with material support, the project “Okna” improves also the well-being of pupils and helps them in “equal start”, which is very important in the context of their all adult life. Education is not only a duty, but is also a right of every child. The symbolic act of “opening a window” gives them new opportunities and creates a new additional perspective.
Thank you for the gift from your heart!
