Give future a hand!

Introduction

I greatly appreciate the charitable work of my predecessors, especially what they have been doing to improve the life of those in need, to promote culture and traditions. I am honoured to be able to represent these values at the side of my husband.

During the course of my days I see countless heart-warming stories, exemplary lives and everyday heroic deeds around me. Many benevolent people and organizations are setting an example by working to help the most needy, those living in large families and those living with disabilities. I would like to be a voice for these amazing people and communities, to divert more and more attention from me towards them.

I consider it extremely important for our common future to assist and encourage young talent. I would like to call the attention of the public and of families to the importance of this.

It is difficult to estimate how many promising young talents remain just that – a promise never fulfilled, how many talents are lost for financial reasons or for lack of adequate training, I think, though, that even a single one is one too many.  As a mother I think that using kind words, paying attention and offering encouragement we can do a lot to change this.

I am happy if you join me in encouraging talented children and youth in families, schools and in the community at large, and if you decide to stand together with me by a pro-talent culture that appreciates achievements that are comparable to one's abilities.
