In the time of CRISIS more important than knowledge is imagination.

Inspired by global youth activity for C:F Change YOUTH for youth challenge; We C:F Office team came together with our friends IECD, Zavod Ypsilon and BRDO Technology park and realized our own local project by not only bringing back smiles but also hopes and belief for children in Pivka region in Slovenia, whose parents can no longer provide proper caring due to massive job losses in the area.

The Aim of Smiles for children project

To give a second life for unused or ”old” toys, books and useful IT appliances or electronics; collect all things and donate them to children in Pivka.

First results of our actions

All collected donations we left in caring hands of Pivka school teachers. Book, toys will be distributed by needs of children.

Next phase after...

Pictures are on way.

C:F Team encourages you...

Any action that results in child smile is a huge reward. And, it is so little needed for making it happen.

Andreja, C:F President

Giving is a magical thing. No matter how you look at it, the power of the gift always comes back to the giver, it cannot fail. Unlike it works in an exchange, the gift never requires a sacrifice or a loss - and always brings back joys, memories, gratitude. So, don't think too much. It only takes a second. Give.

Nadya, C:F Vice President

C:F Team encourages you...It is very precious to stop for a moment, at least from time to time, and do more good for others around us. It does not take much to share a smile, or to write a note, or give a gift or a small token of appreciation, or help somebody out in times of need, but it can make a great difference for both - those who give and those who receive.

Olga, C:F Vice-President

It’s always a great feeling to help others but this time it was somehow special, maybe because we were part of a greater good, YOUTH for youth project or maybe because we were inspired by C:F. In any case, it filled our hearts with joy bringing smiles on children’ faces.”

Dan, C:F Fan

Remember, even the smallest thing, can make a positive change.
