Public Report in support of community projects in Constanta sustained by PACT through Community Fund Pontus Euxin In early June 2011, PACT launched Community Fund Pontus Euxin, totaling 32.600 RON, under its management. The Fund was established by selling tickets at the conference-event, held up by actor Dan Puric in Constanta, on November 20th 2010. The event was organized by a group of citizens in Constanta (constituted as an Initiative Group for Community Fund Pontus Euxin), with support from PACT Foundation, in order to attract funds to sustain local community projects. The main purpose of the fund is to stimulate initiative groups and NGOs in Constanta to develop projects that contribute to producing positive changes in different urban communities in the city of Constanta.

PACT Foundation held Wednesday, December 7th, from 19.30 at Café Godot Theatre, a medieval theme party, which is the second fundraising event from private sources for the Community Fund for action and transformation of villages in southern Romania. The total amount collected at this event, of 8754 lei, from selling tickets, "all pay" auction (everyone pays) for special objects donated and classic auction for works of art offered by artists, will be used to support projects initiated by groups of citizens in rural communities in southern Romania.

01/11/2010

Between November 21st and 25th, 35 young people took part in a 5-day training organized within Voluntising 2 - a project that aims at increasing youth involvement in volunteering activities. After having acquired information on advertising and volunteering and abilities in campaigning and teamwork, participants created 5 videospots (that you can watch below) and took the first steps in sustaining and developing online promotion campaigns for their teams and projects.

Throughout the next month the teams that take part in the project shall dedicate their time to attracting new volunteers, promoting their ideas, conceiving small projects to put into practice along with their supporters. After the promotion campaigns officially end (on October 29th), the teams that have succeeded in conceiving viable projects and in attracting new members, shall be supported by Beyond Youth Potential and other NGOs to put their plans into action.
