Supporting Non-Profits

The Via Foundation is one of the few foundations in the Czech Republic which combines financial assistance with educational programs for non-profit organizations.

Non-profit organizations are an essential part of a democratic society: they act as catalysts and mediators, connecting citizens to important issues of public interest. For this reason, it is vital to help them acquire the needed skills and financial security for their work. Our support extends beyond grant provision, emphasizing the application of a combination of assistance tools, which have become the Via Foundation’s trademark. Our programs concurrently provide non-profits with training, professional assistance and the opportunity to apply for grants, which allow them to immediately apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired.

We focus our support on the organizational development of non-profit organizations. In other words, we give organizations the tools to grow into a self-sustaining organization that can better meet the needs of its community. We also implement activities and programs that work towards building a favorable environment for the non-profit sector in the Czech Republic and in central and eastern Europe.
