Visit to "Viltis" Camp

The Kazickas Family Foundation and Uncommon.lt teams visited the 36th Independent Living Skills Camp in Klaipėda, organized by the Lithuanian Welfare Society for Persons with Intellectual Disabilities “Viltis”.

This year, the camp welcomed over 250 participants – people with intellectual disabilities, their family members, and volunteers.

Viltis Camp

The camp offers families an opportunity to change their environment, strengthen their bonds, provide meaningful activities for people with intellectual disabilities, develop social and communication skills, encourage inclusion in society, and most importantly, build a community where everyone is welcome.

Thanks to the support of volunteers, camp activities are inclusive for all people with various intellectual disabilities, their parents, caregivers, brothers, and sisters. Together, they learn, connect, strengthen relationships, and take a break from their daily routines.

The KFF team had the opportunity to visit the “Pasaka” campsite, see the activities in action, and explore the camp’s fair, where we purchased products made during the workshops.

We are sincerely grateful to “Viltis” for the long-standing partnership and the opportunity to contribute to this meaningful initiative.
