Towarzystwo Przyjaciół Dzieci (Childrens’ Friends Association) which has been working for the welfare of children for over 100 years, honoured the Warbud Foundation Warto Pomagać with a distinction for helping the Association in the renovation of a specialized center for people with disabilities in Olszanka in Puszcza Mariańska commune.

On 26 April 2024, the Masovian Branch of TPD officially opened the renovated facility which will provide day care for 25 people and can accommodate 14 people in a hostel. They have 5 workshops and studios at their disposal:

• technical and carpentry,
• tailoring and handicrafts,
• multimedia and office,
• gastronomy
• and gardening and floristry workshops.

The facility also has a rehabilitation and physiotherapy room. The hostel facilities may serve as respite support for families raising disabled children. This means that people with disabilities can stay here and will be provided with professional care when their parents are temporarily unable to care for them due to random events or other reasons.

The picturesque location of Olszanka in the buffer zone of the Bolimów Landscape Park on the Korabiewka River makes one’s stay at the centre a time beautifully spent. This location is also conducive to organizing rehabilitation stays.

We are glad that thanks to the support of the Warbud Foundation, such a unique place has been created for the social and professional rehabilitation of people with disabilities and their loved ones.
