The Fund\u2019s work and the growing value of its assets were presented to the Fund\u2019s stakeholders \u2014 the Archbishops of Vilnius and Kaunas. It was emphasised that the endowment fund model makes it possible to create long-term support for Ateitininkai activities, rather than relying on one-off donations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The most significant event of the year was identified as the generous EUR 100,000 donation made to the Fund by historian and public figure Saulius Girnius. On the basis of this donation, the Girnius Family Subfund was established within Ateitinink\u0173 Fondas. It will operate on the principle of endowment capital: preserving and growing the capital, while using the investment return to support the activities of young Ateitininkai. \u012fsteigtas Girni\u0173 \u0161eimos subfondas<\/a>. Jis veiks nelie\u010diamojo kapitalo principu: i\u0161saugant ir auginant kapital\u0105, i\u0161 investicij\u0173 gr\u0105\u017eos bus remiama moksleivi\u0173 ateitinink\u0173 veikla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The meeting also discussed how Ateitinink\u0173 Fondas can more effectively engage Ateitininkai, their friends and the wider community in long-term giving. This year, together with Fr Jonas Puod\u017ei\u016bnas, an online seminar on fundraising for Ateitininkai was organised. It addressed practical ways of raising funds, the culture of inviting people to contribute and the involvement of the community. internetinis seminaras apie l\u0117\u0161\u0173 pritraukim\u0105 ateitininkams<\/a>.

The new website should strengthen the Fund\u2019s accountability, help communicate its mission more widely and make it easier for those who wish to contribute to the financing of Ateitininkai activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ypa\u010d svarbi susitikimo dalis buvo dialogas su moksleivi\u0173 ateitinink\u0173 veikl\u0173 organizatoriais.
