ABbout the foundations:

UNICEF Hungary: 'Rajtad áll a jövőd!' - Generation unlimited program:

“Rajtad áll a jövőd!” program is the Hungarian part of the international Generation Unlimited initiative, organized annually by UNICEF Hungary since 2018.

The program aims to provide young people aged 14–21 with opportunities to shape their own learning environments, identify problems that effect them, develop solutions and foster social responsibility within their local student communities.

In the 2024/25 academic year, the program focuses on students enrolled in vocational education and training (VET).

 Based on the received written applications a jury of professionals preselects the ten most promising teams, one from each of the ten participating VET schools to take part in the further stage of the program, to work with mentors and to receive professional support to improve their schools, based on their own insights and ideas. 

Currently, out of these ten teams the top five teams receive financial backing to implement their projects. With the support, all teams participating in the program would be able to receive grants for their projects.

The Hóangyal Foundation was established in 2006 with the goal of supporting the Móra Ferenc Primary School and Unified Special Education Methodological Institute (EGYMI) in Érd, improving its financial and technical resources. The foundation aims to provide recreational and sports programs for children with multiple disabilities and those from disadvantaged backgrounds who attend the institution, as well as to encourage, assist, and support the students.
