Scholarship with Passion - Giving Wings to the Fut

By Anna Jafernik | Project's Leader

Poster "Artist for Orange Energy Program"

Scholarships for talented young people are just one of the ways we support their growth. We do everything we can to ensure that youth from small towns and rural areas have the chance to develop their talents, push past their limits, and find their place in the world.

In October, the heart of our town came alive with art – we organized a special exhibition titled "Artists for Orange Energy", showcasing the creative work of our scholarship recipients and other youth connected with our foundation. The number of participants and visitors exceeded our expectations – it became a true celebration of young talent.

We are now preparing to launch the next edition of our Scholarship Contest, although due to limited funding, we can currently award only 3 to 4 scholarships for a 10-month period. "Scholarship with Passion" is a unique program in our region – it provides young people not only with financial support but also with the opportunity to work alongside dedicated mentors who support their personal and artistic development.

Thanks to this support, many young people begin to believe in themselves – they debut on theater stages, perform at major music festivals in Poland, write, photograph, create. But most importantly – they discover their potential and have the courage to reach higher.

And all of this is possible thanks to people like you – donors who believe in the potential of the next generation.
Thank you for your trust and your heart – you are the ones giving young people wings to grow.

Changing Young Lives

By Anna Jafernik | Project's leader

We’re excited to share the latest updates about the scholarship program and the incredible progress of the young people who received support thanks to your donations.
Today, we’re proud to show the results of this joint effort – because behind every contribution lies a real story of success.

Your support is more than just financial assistance – it’s an investment in the dreams, talents, and strength of young people from smaller towns and communities. Today, we’re excited to share the results of this joint effort with you. Because behind every contribution lies a real story of success.

Zaneta – from workshops to the stage
One of our scholarship recipients, Zaneta, used her funding to attend acting workshops. Thanks to the scholarship, her determination, and her potential, she was able to develop her talent and gain confidence.
Today, she performs in one of the leading roles on a theater stage – with passion, courage, and professionalism. Her story is living proof that support has power – and that dreams really do come true.

Artists for Children and Youth Mental Health
A group of our scholarship recipients who are developing their artistic skills is currently preparing a unique exhibition:
“Artists for the Mental Health of Children and Youth”
This project combines art with an important social message. Thanks to your involvement, these young artists are not only creating – they are also inspiring and supporting others.

A special milestone ahead – the 10th edition of our scholarship competition!
This year, we’re celebrating the 10th – jubilee – edition of our scholarship program. It’s a meaningful moment for us, but even more so for those waiting for their chance.

Our goal is to fund more talented individuals so they can: develop their passions, gain new skills and believe in themselves and their worth.

We are planning to award 5 scholarships to gifted individuals from small towns and villages.

These scholarships bring real results. They help young people: overcome barriers, develop their talents, take action for the benefit of others.

If you’d like to continue supporting young creators, artists, and future leaders – stay with us for the next editions.
Together, we make even more good happen.
