Foundation Charta 77
Without missing a beat, Foundation Charta 77 relocated its activities from Stockholm, where it was founded by its Chairman František Janouch in 1978, to Prague; as of February 1990, it was registered as a
charity/NGO in Czechoslovakia.
Coming from a broad concept of defending human rights and supporting persecuted dissidents and samizdat culture, the foundation shifted its focus towards supporting a whole range of cultural and humanitarian activities, and in doing so became a pioneer for a civil society.
Through its work, the Foundation achieved:
- to reach out to a broad segment of the general public, whom it enlightened and gave positive guidance for the benefit of the non-profit sector
- to render hands-on assistance to individuals, now numbering in the thousands, as they face extremely taxing social, health, and economic problems
- to participate in creating a network of social, educational, and healthcare organizations – recruited both from professional circles and volunteers – who engage in constructive cooperation, and who today are able not only to receive help from the foundation, but to transform this help in a creative manner into new useful values
Since its very inception, the foundation has been open to, and provides financial assistance from its funds, to eligible applicants from all over the country.
