Covasna Community Foundation

The Community Foundation Háromszék was established in 2010 through a local initiative, an ARC (Association for Community Relations) and Environmental Partnership Foundation coordinated through a nationwide program. It has eleven founders: intellectuals, entrepreneurs and civil society organisation representatives all living in the Covasna county. Similar organisations are based in Cluj Napoca, Odorheiu Secuiesc and Alba Iulia, and other three foundations are currently being established in Constanta, Iasi and Cristuru Secuiesc. The last one is a sub-unit of the Odorheiu Secuiesc ‘s Community Foundation, but with its own image. Community Foundations are present in each part of the world. Their task is the financial management and the targeted use of local resources for the benefit of the community. Community Foundations are the highest level instruments of community development.

The mission of the Community Foundation Háromszék is to make local people’s life better by mobilising and developing local resources in order to support local and regional initiatives of the community.
