We are currently implementing the New East capacity building project, which was supported by the Aktīvo iedzīvotāju fonds.
One of the very important aspects of the program is investment in long-term development, and today we receive the first part of the equipment order - sound, lights, recording equipment, remote control, stands, etc.
Over the last three years, our organization has implemented more than 50 events, and each event requires lighting and sound equipment. The purchase of equipment will facilitate the organization of events, reduce costs and increase the quality of activities.
Purchasing equipment will help the organization create a new range of services. In the long run, this activity will help our organization maximize the benefits of a non-project. Non-project financial revenues will increase.

Thanks to our supporters! #AktivoIedzivotajuFonds #ActiveCitizensFund #EEAgrants #EEAgrantsLatvia Read more
