PAY IT FORWARD - Janaszkowo supported housing

Dear Friend, we would like to share an important movie with you. Please, click the link below and turn on the English subtitles to learn about our future plans.

In the following movie Emilia, Magosia and Mirek talk about themselves and their big dream... Due to their disabilities, they require a lot of daily support in all activities, but they want to live with dignity, they want to be independent, active and, as far as possible, self-reliant. Supported housing is being created for them and many other people with significant disabilities. The rehabilitation part, which was created during the first stage of the general modernization of the facility, has been operating in the Osada Janaszkowo in Wasosze (near Slesin) for 2 years now. PAY IT FORWARD Foundation is preparing for the next stage - modernization and furnishing of the upper floors, where supported apartments will be built.

On June 25, 2021, we launched a modern rehabilitation part in the Janaszkowo settlement, where classes take place every day! This is the first stage of work, which we financed, among others, thanks to your support.

We still need to renovate the ground floor and the first floor, i.e. the residential part. The training apartments will be inhabited by people whose disabilities keep them at home, who are at the beginning of their journey and only here will they learn to live independently and practice daily activities.

There will also be apartments for those who are ready to make the hard decision and are not afraid to leave home, meet new people, have their own hobbies, work, but due to their disabilities, they need the support of an assistant.

Osada Janaszkowo is a great support for people with disabilities themselves, but also a chance to catch a breath for their loved ones who often give up their own lives to take care of the disabled 24 hours a day... In the respite part, parents will be able to leave their disabled children under the careful and professional care.
