Preserving Cultural Heritage - Save the Heritage, Create the Future!:

Preserving cultural heritage is a fundamental aspect of our foundation's mission. This means undertaking diverse actions aimed at preserving, renewing, and protecting unique elements of culture and history, which are an important part of our identity and national heritage. Below are the key elements of our work in the area of cultural heritage preservation:

  1. Restoration and Conservation of Monuments: Our foundation is actively involved in the restoration, conservation, and renewal of historic objects. This is often a complex task that requires specialized knowledge and appropriate funding. Our work includes both renovation activities and historical research aimed at restoring the original appearance of these objects.
  2. Revitalization of Areas: We strive for the revitalization of areas that have degraded. This includes not only the physical renewal of buildings and lands but also the development of cultural, economic, and tourism activities that contribute to improving the quality of life of the local community.
  3. Cultural Promotion and Education: We support initiatives related to the promotion of cultural heritage, such as exhibitions, cultural events, workshops, and history lessons. Our goal is to sustain public interest in cultural heritage and provide education in this area.
  4. Preservation of Natural Monuments: We also work towards the protection and preservation of natural monuments, which are often an integral part of cultural heritage. This may include the care of ancient trees, parks, or other natural areas.
  5. Bibliography, Documentation, and Collections: We actively gather information, documentation, and materials related to history and cultural heritage. This helps us to better understand and document our past, which is fundamental in the process of restoring damaged objects to their original state. Moreover, we also collect artifacts and material culture collections to protect and make them accessible to the public.

All these activities are united in the goal of preserving cultural heritage for future generations and passing it on as an important part of our identity and history. Our work in this area is a significant contribution to shaping the future, while respecting and nurturing the rich history of our culture.

Supporting ecology encompasses a wide range of activities that go beyond merely historic objects, also incorporating aspects of sustainable development and a modern approach to environmental protection. Our actions in the field of ecology include:

  1. Eco-friendly actions in the process of revitalization and restoration: As part of our mission, we undertake eco-friendly actions in the process of revitalizing and restoring both historic and modern structures. This means that we care about minimizing the impact of our activities on the environment by using modern technologies and materials that are environmentally friendly.
  2. Promoting eco-friendly actions: Our foundation actively promotes eco-friendly actions not only in the context of objects but also as part of daily life. We encourage taking steps aimed at reducing energy and water consumption, and we promote recycling and waste reduction.
  3. Renewable Energy: Our support for ecology includes research on various sources of renewable energy. We are not limited to wind or photovoltaic panels but are also engaged in research on the use of renewable sources such as energy plants. We explore the possibilities of obtaining and processing energy from various sources and develop methods for storing energy in a more efficient and ecological way.
  4. Processing plant-based raw materials: We aim to develop innovative technologies that allow for the conversion of plant-based raw materials into higher-energy sources of energy. This aims to reduce dependency on traditional, non-renewable sources and promote sustainable development.
