The City Hall of Prague 13a provides the organization Give children a chance
The leadership of Prague 13 can also cooperate with the organizations Let’s Give the Children to support “You know their stories”. That’s the name of a new book about the lives of children and young people who, for various reasons, found refuge in a children’s home. The book is provided by Prague 13 with a subsidy of 50,000 crowns.
“We have been supporting several social initiatives for a long time, and children’s homes are one of the big social issues. When children leave the children’s home, they suddenly find themselves in a completely new world, and there they need help. I believe that a book full of authentic stories will bring this topic closer to the general public, and above all, it will help everyone. The support of the organization Give children a chance is from ours parties absolutely self-evident and we were happy to support both this book and the daily activities of those who help children from children’s homes to enter an independent life,” he said the mayor of Prague 13, David Vodrážka.
“In the book you will find 31 authentic stories of those children and young people who live or have lived in a children’s home. We have been collecting stories for several years as part of literary competitions that we have organized, or they are the stories of students that we support. We know those close stories and we knew that their story is very deep, we asked to write it down. In addition, readers will find basic information about substitute family care and institutional care there. In this way, I would like to thank the City Hall of Prague 13 for its long-term support,” she added Michaela Chovancová, director of the organization Give children a chance.
The book ZNÁTE EJICH PRÍBĚHY was published by the organization Give Children a Chance, which wants to introduce its activities with this unique publication. The book also includes a very comprehensive interview with the director of a children’s home.
