General Information
The Open Future Foundation is a non-government organisation. It was established in October 2009 and operates under the Act of 6 April 1984 on Foundations.The Foundation is based in the city of Olsztyn.We are willing to establish contacts and cooperate with similar organisations in this country and abroad, government bodies and the business. We cooperate with for example the global organisation AIESEC. We develop our own network of contacts through the involvement of foreign volunteers in work at Polish schools, companies and institutions. We have already planned our activities for 2010 that are related to the launch of „Youth in Action” programme and we encouraged students from Warmia and Mazury to participate in film making workshops organised in cooperation with Warmia and Mazury Film Studio. Besides film making workshops, students will take part in the European Union workshops and English classes. After the completion of the programme the participants will receive certificates of completion of film making workshops and will have the opportunity to take part in the next international stage of the programme. We have also applied for Polish and Lithuanian Fund to organize cultural and historical workshops for Polish and Lithuanian Students from secondary schools and also for Norway Fund to organize Polish and Norwegian art workshops for students. We are charity organization.

We encourage young people to take part in film making and journalism workshops, exhibitions, concerts, camps for students, meetings with famous people from the world of science, culture, media, etc.
We want to provide young people with a better start in adult life, prepare them for a conscious choice of a field of their studies and future career, encourage them to develop their passions and thus develop interesting personalities and excellent characters. Our actions support the progress in science, education, teaching and upbringing, knowledge of different countries and leisure time for children and young people, culture, art, protection of cultural achievements and tradition. We provide social aid, including support for families and people with difficult life conditions and the disabled. We try to give such families and people equal opportunities.
