Share Your Home – a campaign for promoting child custody.

SDG:

The ‘Grupa Kęty for the Children of the Podbeskidzie Region’ Foundation and the City of Bielsko-Biała have been jointly running a social campaign entitled ‘Share Your Home – Bielsko-Biała For Child Custody Support’. In 2023, the ‘Share Your Home’ project was rebranded not only from its visual side but also subject-matter content. The whole history has been created for the project with the major trademark in the form of a bird – LONG-TAILED TIT – which is considered to be a family bird, caring not only for their young but also other abandoned chicks.

Together with the City of Bielsko-Biała, we have been promoting the project in the public space, on buses, at bus stops and even on billboards in the selected parts of the city. We have also engaged in other activities, such as helping out in the organisation of a picnic for foster families, supporting competitions run by the Municipal Social Welfare Centre in Bielsko-Biała, and engaging the foster children in the Children’s Dream Christmas action. We were, however, most active in providing individual support to foster families – only in 2023 we helped 35 such families.

The ‘Grupa Kęty for the Children of the Podbeskidzie Region’ Foundation has spent the total of PLN 120,000 on the activities related to child custody.
