Hungary
Our Hungarian Affiliate is Roots and Wings Foundation, an organisation which aims to support, develop and strengthen Community Foundations in the country. The first open giving circle (known as Elő Adás) in Hungary was organised by the Ferencvaros Community Foundation in Budapest in December 2015, with the support of Roots and Wings. Events have since been held by five host organisations, in the town of Miskolc, Pecs and in Budapest, by the Roots and Wings Foundation itself.
Key Statistics
22 events have taken place in Hungary so far. Over 2,847 donors have collectively raised over £188,000 pounds for 67 projects tackling issues which are seen as controversial in the country.
