The experience of encounter
In our society, significant gaps exist between disadvantaged and non-disadvantaged groups, and these gaps are further widened by different types of segregation. Our association aims to bring attention to this issue. We establish a secure and inclusive space for children from diverse social backgrounds to come together and learn from one another.Our goal is to help children from all backgrounds feel they belong to a community and support them to become understanding and resilient adults. We achieve this through experiential educational activities, team sports, games, arts and crafts and outdoor adventures.To ensure that all interested children have equal opportunities to participate and develop, our programs are offered free of charge to for everyone, regardless of their financial circumstances.
Our programs
Kacsakő Sports Camp
Since 2019, we have been organizing week-long sports and adventure summer camps for children aged 10-16 who come from various social backgrounds. Fair play team sports, outdoor activities, arts and crafts, and various workshops offer lifetime experiences for the participating children.
Kacsakő Klub
We organize regular club sessions for the children with exciting activities that take us back to the cheerful and inclusive atmosphere of the summer camps. These programs aim to assist in maintaining the friendships formed during the camps, while we also warmly welcome new participants.
Kacsakő Next
The Kacsakő Next program is part of the international three-year-long initiative Generation Europe - The Academy, which is open for our campers aged 14 and above. The participants, now considered "Buddies", take on more responsibilities within the Kacsakő community and work on their own social project to take steps against social inequalities.
Kacsakő Mentor
The aim of our mentoring program is to support the children and young people participating in the program in developing their skills, unleashing their talents, and deepening their self-awareness. We support our mentors with training, helpful materials, and bi-monthly case discussions led by a child psychologist so that they can effectively help the children.The first year of the program was supported by the European Union and ran from fall 2024 to spring 2025.
