Mission/Info:

It was founded in December 2004. The foundation is responsible for creating acceptable conditions for talented children especially from socially disadvantaged families.

The project’s motto is:
“Say No to drugs and other addictive substances! Children and the young, come to sports grounds!”

To lead children to sport activities is a long-term task and a complex educational process, demanding a cooperation of several factors, namely: parents, school and couches. At the end of this effort should be a young adult to whom the sport gave an unforgettable and meaningful childhood, friends, a great experience, and a lot of fun and memories of successful and less successful moments.

Children have a right to dream, and even about one day becoming World Champions or Olympic Winners, The M.G. Foundation is one of many steps to be taken before seemingly unattainable dreams could come true, it is the challenge to go further and higher.
