Introduction
Welcome to the website of DEJME DĚTEM ŠANCI o.p.s. (LET’S GIVE CHILDREN A CHANCE)
We provide comprehensive help for children and young people from children’s homes, especially in the last years of their stay in a children’s home, during the period of their leaving and at the start of their individual lives.
You will find more information in the individual projects of the organization.
Choose one child who you can personally support!
If you help one child, you don’t change the world, but you can change the world for that one child!
In 8 years we have supported more than 3 000 specific children with a total amount over 34 million CZK!
We make it possible for people to support a specific child living in a children’s home in the Czech Republic, in the form that is acceptable to them.
- securing financial support for the child after leaving the children’s home - saving within the framework of the project „Support me…” or adoption „up close…” (minimum donation CZK 200 per month)
- establishing a contact person outside the children’s home, support and publicity for the “host care” - project „Find me…”
- fulfilling the specific reasonable wish of a child - project „I wish…” (minimum donation CZK 100)
- support for the study and preparing for the future of the profession, help on leaving the children’s home - project „Help me start in life...”
In all cases this means direct support of a specific child.
We are working with 41 children’s homes in all 14 regions of the Czech Republic.
We have more then 250 children included in our projects.
