Support Centre "SAPNIS" is an association established in 2007. We work with children and youth from low-income and socially disadvantaged families. We work not only with children and young people, but with the family as a whole. Every day, our centre is visited by children aged 7-14. Children usually spend an average of 5 hours with us – they do their homework and have tea. There is a possibility to take a bath and wash clothes, participate in different interest circles and learn essential life skills. Wherever possible, we help families financially - we pay for school lunches and help with purchasing food, medicine, school books, school supplies and clothing. We provide consultations for parents regarding social issues. We ourselves are parents and we know what problems children-raising families have to face. Our goal is to help children and young people see opportunities of a different life, understand their value and regain self-esteem. We believe that everyone has the right to a safe life in a safe environment, surrounded by a community of loving and concerned people. If someone's life hasn’t been as fortunate as others, it doesn’t mean that he will not able to grow up a good man. Everyone - big and small has a DREAM - we are trying to help those dreams become true... You know ... with us you will find support and encouragement, and you will definitely be heard!
