Organizer - CF "ACT NOW!"

The fund management is represented by young people with disabilities who lead an active life despite the existing barriers.

The foundation creates and implements projects that contribute to the inclusion of everyone including those who are not confident in themselves for various reasons: they can not leave the house, or they are isolated from society, or they do not have the necessary social skills.

Sometimes many of us simply do not have enough support, a personal example of people who successfully coped with such problems. The foundation was created so that everyone could have the opportunity to realize their ideas and projects.
