Have you ever thought about organizing a volunteer day in your place of employment?🤔 We in Purple strongly recommend to do it!

Our second ever volunteer day took place a week ago and 39 of my wonderful colleagues from Purple Team decided to devote their day to helping where needed. To round up the number to 40, we had a special appearance from ParaCENTRUM Fenix in form of their amazing fundraiser who joined us as well.😍💪

There are dozens, if not hundreds of nonprofits in Brno that need regular or one-time volunteers, with activities that cater to all interests. This year, we:

✅ Threw on some gardening gloves and worked at the enclosures and green areas at Zoo Brno🦓

✅ Sorted through and packed up clothes for Dobrovolnické centrum ADRA Brno charity shop👕

✅ Painted, cleaned, crafter and sorted in FOD Klokánek BRNO, a centre for socially disadvantaged children🛠️

✅ And did even more painting, crafting and gardening in Hospic sv. Alžběty in Brno🍂

All of the organizations offered a really warm welcome, unexpected but very much appreciated snacks assortments🍩and, what is most important, showed us around and explained whom they help and why.🫶

If you wish to organize a volunteering group among your friends or colleagues, don't be afraid to reach out to them - or send us a message if you need a piece of advice, we will be happy to help!🥹

Happy volunteering and see you again at Purple Volunteer Day 2027!💜

ParaCENTRUM Fenix invited us to their amazing Ples pro FENIX and we were so happy to attend!💃🥂

Moreover, we are excited that we can help the organization in building their comprehensive centre for people using wheelchairs after cervical spine injuries. It shall be open as early as 2028 in Modřice and we cannot wait to see the huge positive impact it will inevitably have! 🧑‍🦽‍➡️👏💪

FENIX is one of the organizations that has perfected their communications with both donors and the public and we always feel appreciated and very well informed about what is going on in their amazing team.📩 Besides the ball, they organize other events 🗓️ throughout the year that are worth visiting, such as Roztoč to! (https://pcfenix.cz/akce/roztoc-to-2026/), Roztoč kola (https://roztockola.cz/), Knoflík spojuje (https://roztacime.cz/knoflik-spojuje/) or Dražba pro FENIX (https://drazbaprofenix.cz/). Definitely check them out!🩵

Bon voyage!👋

Another year, another charity collection of clothes sent to Klub svobodných matek. The organization either sells them in their amazing Charity Fashion Shop, or sends packages of clothes to single-parent families in need all over Czechia.😍👕👗

A huge thank you goes to my wonderful colleagues from Purple Team who brought in hundreds of high-quality garments, as well as the Brno-based company KS-trans autodoprava a spedice who decided to drive the whole collection from our headquarters in Brno all the way to Prague for free as a charitable gesture, for the second time in a row. Thank you so much!💜🥹

February 9 is here with top 9 moments of 2025!👀😍

1️⃣Purple MeetUp in 2025 hosted our wonderful guests from supported organizations again and the topic of our meetup was Day to day at work. Now that we know what the everyday workload of each of them entails, our respect and admiration for them has grown even more!💪

2️⃣Our Purple Team collected 70 kg of clothing for Klub svobodných matek and KS-trans autodoprava a spedice from Brno transported it to Prague for free as they have a heart of gold🚛

3️⃣Our connection with LOCIKA - centrum pro děti ohrožené domácím násilím was meant to be since we found out that their brochures are featuring the spitting image of one of Purple Foundation members, Krištof😁

4️⃣Everyone is having a very dreamy time when Vodicí pes, z. s. brings over their pups for a puppy yoga session🐕‍🦺

5️⃣In 2025 we organized our first volunteer day event and it was a huge success - 50 of our Purple Team colleagues helped in 4 different locations in two days.🥹 Zoo Brno also made our childhood dreams come true because...

6️⃣... they drove us around in a ZOO train that surprisingly many of our parents had always considered an experience too luxurious to have in the past!🥰🚂

7️⃣Běh pro Světluška - Nadační fond Českého rozhlasu is now a tradition in Purple and it will definitely be repeated in 2026, hopefully with higher quality photos & better resolution (a slight fail on the side of the director)🏃‍♀️‍➡️

8️⃣The reconstruction of an ORL room in Dětská nemocnice of Fakultní nemocnice Brno that we financially supported is finished!👏 Now the tiny patients waking up after the surgeries can have their closest person by their side, helping them heal securely and in a nice environment🐣

9️⃣Last but not least, I would like to use this little collage to introduce and say a HUGE thank you to our PuFo assistant Daniela who comes running whenever a larger event is happening and we need help. She is a force behind many of our great moments and fantastic at her job😍

We shall now wait another year for the next top 9 moments, but I already know there will be a ton to choose from.📸 Here's to an eventful 2026!🥂💜

Our dear friends, it is time to sum up our help in 2025. First and foremost, we want to say a huge thanks to the Purple Team for making it possible!💜😍

We have been supporting most of the NGOs for years now and because we want to inspire others to help, too, I wish to tell you some of our randomly picked favourite things about each of them.☺️Let's go!

proFem o.p.s. are very creative in their fundraising efforts. Last autumn, the Mountfield Hradec Králové hockey club turned their game against Mladá Boleslav into a chance to support and spread awareness about ProFem. Well done!🏒 https://www.profem.cz/cs/novinky/a/sport-ktery-pomaha-hokejovy-zapas-mountfield-hk-pro-zeny-zazivajici-nasili

Brno Children's hospital at Fakultní nemocnice Brno introduced their new mascot - a squirrel called Deny (as in Dětská Nemocnice) and it will guide little patients through their hospital stay🐿️

Vodicí pes, z. s. has a senior home for all the assistance dogs who finished their training with them but cannot stay with their clients forever🦮

Začni učit! organized a Teacher's F**k up night in Prague and it was full of amazing stories. Lucky for us, they posted a recording of it on YouTube and it is a great watch🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGYYn3hgsdk

Nemocnice Milosrdných bratří has a closet full of clothes and shoes ready to give to their unhoused or socially disadvantaged clients when they leave the hospital👞

Masarykův onkologický ústav Brno has a long-standing cooperation with the VUT Faculty of Fine Arts in Brno. They let the students display their works for a year and thus make the hospital a top-quality and beautiful place to find help🖼️ https://artplus.cz/cs/aukcni-zpravodajstvi/1/umeni-na-zdech-pomaha-pacientum-v-lecbe-rakoviny

Besides their helpline and prevention programs, Linka bezpečí z.s. also visits sports clubs for young people and trains their coaches in recognising signs of domestic violence, eating disorders, and other issues in their trainees⚽

Dům pro Julii joined forces with Asistenční jednorožec and started offering hippotherapy in their centre which won both the 2025 Building of the Year award AND 2025 Czech Architecture Award🐎 https://www.instagram.com/p/DKWn5-1oCfH/?hl=en

For 5 years now, Mezi námi, ops have been cooperating with the LEGO Group who provide senior homes and kindergarten children with LEGO sets they can build together🏰

yourchance help children leaving foster and institutional care start their adult lives. They also found that their efforts saved the Czech government so far - a staggering 220 000 000 CZK💸

LOCIKA - centrum pro děti ohrožené domácím násilím launched their first merch item to celebrate their 10th birthday - a beautiful Laskavý zápisník📓https://www.papelote.cz/laskavy-zapisnik-centrum-locika/

Hospic sv. Alžběty jumped on the trend of life-like cat plushies which are a very effective way for patients with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia to decrease stress and agitation🐈‍⬛

In 2025, Sanitka přání reached 100 wishes granted to clients with terminal illnesses 🚑

SOS dětské vesničky organize a visit of their childrens ombudsman twice a year, and the children get to pick their program - such as playing hide and seek or making burritos🌯

In PuFo, we have been striving to make the environment we live in better and a very important part of this initiative is helping hospitals in Brno.🏥🫶

In Fakultní nemocnice Brno, we decided to help renovate an ORL room in the Children's hospital for the tiny patients🤒and their parents, so that the children waking up after the surgeries can have their closest person by their side, helping them heal securely and in a nice environment 👩‍👧🛌

We hope that the room will serve the hospital for many years to come!🙏💜

Zrekonstruovaný pokoj na lůžkovém oddělení Klinicky dětské ORL zlepší komfort pro dětské pacienty a jejich doprovod. Rekonstrukce probíhala přibližně měsíc a stavební práce byly prováděny za běžného provozu tak, aby provoz na klinice omezily co nejméně. Základem rekonstru...

Being able to help local hospitals in Brno is one of our biggest joys and we know that Nemocnice Milosrdných bratří will always deliver the best care possible.😍 It is definitely not our last cooperation! 🙏💜

💜 Velké poděkování Purple Foundation, nadační fond! 🙏✨

Díky daru nadačního fondu jsme v letošním roce mohli pořídit nové skříně na interní oddělení B a C 🏥. Tyto skříně slouží jak našim pacientům k uložení osobních věcí, tak sestrám na pomůcky pro ošetřování pacientů.

V minulých letech jsme díky Purple Foundation mohli například zakoupit porodní vanu a vybavit nadstandardní pokoj na gynekologicko-porodnickém oddělení 👶💖.

Děkujeme! 💜

Our supported organisation proFem o.p.s. needs help. Why?😯

Because they are trying to offer help to victims of domestic and sexual abuse on a much larger scale now by opening a 3-bedroom flat that women with children can use as a shelter in times of crisis!🏡🫶

We are happy to share the campaign to cover the last expenses before the opening - see all the important info here⬇️💜
