"I want someone to take care of me when i get old ..."

Tako Bakradze is the winner of the Orbeliani Meti’s contest of ideas, and her idea is to give a free pottery lesson to seniors from Martkopi. In order to make the possibility of studying ceramics for the seniors, she moved to Martkopi with her family and created a studio, where the seniors are given the opportunity to practice. Tako shares with us what changes her initiative will bring to society: “The support of Orbeliani Mati does not start from 70% financial co-financing, but from the preparation we start to shoot a video so that our idea can see the light of day and reach the hearts of many people. The video of Ulevi Ceramics had 279 shares within 24 hours of being posted on social networks, without any artificial intervention or sponsored advertising. Despite the fact that we believe in our idea and we have understood our social responsibility, which involves returning people over 60 years of age to society and effectively using their years of experience, we were still pleasantly surprised by the reaction of the people to the video. This showed us even more how acute the problem of socialization of the elderly is in our country and how we need to start taking action to solve this problem as soon as possible. A lady who made a donation to give a free pottery lesson to seniors from Martkopi., wrote us one phrase, “I want them to take care of me in my old age”… This phrase has become the starting point from which we realize that caring for one another is the foundation of a healthy society.Each donation we receive from donors brings us one step closer to allowing ten elderly people of Martkofi to enjoy a friendly and age-stereotype-free space, develop a new hobby and have a source of income from a pleasant job. So important is the involvement of people who make their own contribution to the health and diversity of their senior years, we are confident that we will be able to open more workshops in the future to bring more seniors back into society.” Learn more about Tako’s Idea!

What is a CROWDFUNDING?

Crowdfunding helps people turn their ideas into reality, get enough funding to implement their projects and social initiatives. The main idea of crowdfunding is the implementation of common projects by many people with united efforts and active participation! The advantage of crowdfunding (public financing) is that it is possible to obtain financing without the participation of banks, various funds and exchanges. This is a more democratic method – you have the opportunity to present your idea to a large number of potential financiers in the online space Crowdfunding allows as many people as possible to be interested in your idea, which will bring good to society. There are several types of crowdfunding: Donation-based crowdfunding, which involves collecting donations from supporters for your project. In the case of incentive-based crowdfunding, the project author thanks the donor with a symbolic reward. Equity-based crowdfunding means that donors receive a percentage of the company’s stock in exchange for their support. And finally, loan-based financing, in which the project author undertakes to return the donation after a certain period of time. Which type of crowdfunding you choose depends on the needs of your project. If you have an idea that you want to make a reality or become a part of something valuable and strengthen a region with a donation, the crowdfunding platform provides exactly these opportunities!

The Ontopo Library boasts a rich and fascinating history. It was founded on March 5, 1912. Over the years, its development was led by devoted locals from the Ontopo Library supporters' community, among them Besarion, Bartlome, Badri Nadareishvili, Vladimir Chikhladze, Gvrito Chanturaia, and others. A century later, we have chosen to honor their legacy and further the tradition by actively participating in the library's development. We believe that the library can play a significant role in providing access to information and fostering new opportunities. The library's revitalization will breathe new life into the village. Enhanced infrastructure, replenished book funds, and a dedicated reading space will transform the library into a vibrant community gathering space, effectively connecting with and engaging new generations. Our goal is to establish a multifunctional space that meets diverse interests of different generations. The library will feature book collections, a comfortable reading area, educational programs, meeting spaces, and a dedicated section for kids. This will empower the library to engage locals of all ages in exciting activities, making it appealing to everyone across generations.
