This fund supports the establishment of Christian schools in the Czech Republic.
A Christian school is a perfect place for the cultivating of a young person’s faith. Young people spend a third of their time at school – every day – up until they reach 16 years. Values and life examples they learn there will follow them their whole life. If Christian faith is part of the school’s DNA, its functioning does not have to be restricted as it is at public schools. Schools with Christian DNA have a positive influence on students, their parents, and they naturally become a place where Christians serve others. Currently, as part of this fund, we are supporting two projects.
The Wholehearted school
- Establishment of a Christian school in Prague
The organizer of a Christian or private school has a responsibility to ensure that the school is provided with sufficient equipment. The second financial burden is insufficient financial resources for the functioning of the school in its beginnings, due to fewer amount of students in the first year of this school. If the school gains trust, capacity will be filled up and the functioning is economically self-provided. The common practice is lower pay for teachers, about approximately 10 %.

The research of Filip Kachnic
Every human being has a breath, not every one of them has a voice. Among us, we have little human beings, whose voice is not heard but they make a big difference: they bring the topic of respect to schools. They are the children of immigrants. I am giving voice to these children. I want to get to know their gifts so that they could use them for the good of the whole classroom. Become part of this and help me carry out an offer to schools that includes free evaluation of the conditions of immigrants‘ education. We know that if the school has the right perspective on immigrants’ education, the presence of immigrants in classes starts motivating other Czech children. (OECD)
