“A Home for Every Child | Give a Start”

For every person, a home is more than simply a place to live. It is security, support, and the feeling that there is somewhere to begin and somewhere to return to. For young people who have grown up without parental care, this starting point is often more difficult and requires support at the very moment they take their first steps towards independence.

It is around this very idea that the National Real Estate Association, with the support of DSK Home and the media partnership of Darik Radio, came together through the initiative “A Home for Every Child | Give a Start”, launched in support of FSCI’s House of Opportunity programme.

The campaign aims to support young people leaving the care system as they begin their journey towards independent living. Because the transition to independence is not simply about having a place to live. It also means education, employment, practical skills, confidence, and people who believe in you.

The funds raised through the initiative will help young people gain knowledge and practical skills, develop professionally, and build a stronger foundation for their future.

A special part of the campaign is dedicated to children’s drawings on the theme “My Dream Home”. In these drawings, a home is not simply a building. It represents warmth, closeness, peace, and a place where a person feels accepted. Sometimes children’s perspectives remind us most powerfully of what the word “home” truly means.

For many years now, FSCI’s House of Opportunity programme has supported young people in their transition to independent living. Initiatives such as “A Home for Every Child | Give a Start” demonstrate just how meaningful change can be when professional communities and people united by a common cause come together around one idea: every child and every young person deserves the opportunity for a confident and dignified start in life.
