The Fund supported a project aimed at encouraging children and young people in out-of-home care at the Krāslava Children’s Social Rehabilitation Centre “Mūsmājas” to take part in physical activities and adopt a healthy lifestyle.
During the project, 16 children and young people participated in a wide range of sports and recreational activities, including tennis, swimming, canoeing, skiing, therapeutic exercise, and gym training. These activities not only improved their physical fitness but also strengthened their self-confidence, emotional resilience, and teamwork skills.
An important part of the project was giving children the opportunity to explore different sports and spend time in a supportive environment alongside coaches and other adults who encouraged them to overcome their fears, believe in themselves, and take pride in their achievements.
