FOCUS AREAS:
The civic organization Pro Vida carries out activities in the following areas:
SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT AND INTEGRATION
We believe that well-rounded personal development during childhood is the basic requirement for a successful life and integration into society. Our activities are mainly focused on education and integration of children from disadvantaged groups into society. Handicapped children and those living in children’s homes are our primary target group.
EDUCATION
We aim to expand children’s knowledge since we believe that it influences human culture and social integration. With our activities we seek to support children’s desire for understanding and continuously expand their knowledge and enrich their experiences.
CULTURE AND ART
Culture and art are valuable social events. We would like to support communication of positive values in the community through art and cultural events. We would also like to enable disadvantaged youth to have access to artistic education, whether in basic art schools or through other means.
SPORT
Active sport is part of a healthy lifestyle. With our activities we would like to encourage sport among youth in schools.
HEALTH
Health is the basis for a valuable life. In cooperation with specialists and other non-profit organizations we develop activities and projects focused mainly on prevention of civilization and chronic illnesses among children, including asthma.
