Resumo: The main goal of the Foundation is to integrate and support people from disadvantaged backgrounds; to enable them to participate in educational and cultural events; to promote them in society; to fight against discrimination, intolerance and lack of acceptance towards the most helpless groups in Poland ( the poorest, unemployed, national minorities).

The major need is to break off the negative stereotypes and know each other by acting together.
We work with children, youth and adults from poor and pathological families (we have two community centres (working afternoons) for children and youth. We take care of them, organize artistic and sports activities, excursions, summer and winter holidays, we offer a chance for them to develop their interests, artistic skills and enhance educational possibilities.

We provide the poorest with food in cooperation with Food Bank, we give legal advice free of charge, learn about social issues and human rights. We have great experience in work with Romani Community from Wroclaw. We cooperate with Romani Bacht Association, we participated in international study tours to Romani Associations from Czech and Slovakia, Hungary, we published books about education and situation of Romani people in Central Europe and picture stories about Romani History.
Our Foundation also cooperates with teachers, psychologists, art therapist, trainers, dance instructors, lawyers, students and other non-governmental organizations for the enrichment of our activities and interventions within the community.
