Transparent operation. Documented support. Real social impact.

By making our annual reports, public benefit reports and professional summaries publicly available, we want to show that our support is used in a purpose-bound, transparent way, in line with the foundation’s public benefit mission.

The evolution of our support and programmes

Since 2019, the Gattyán Foundation has been working to provide tangible, targeted and long-term value-creating support for children and young people living in state care and in disadvantaged and multiply disadvantaged situations.

A central principle of the foundation’s operation is that support is used in a documented, purpose-bound manner and in accordance with the public benefit objectives set out in its founding charter. In implementing its programmes, particular attention is paid to assessing institutional needs, professional cooperation, financial accountability and demonstrating social impact.

Our mission taking shape year by year

Numbers alone say little. That is why, alongside the annual financial figures, we also briefly present the programmes we carried out in each year, how many children and institutions the support reached, and the results we achieved together.

2019

Founding and start of operations

The foundation began operating in 2019. In its first year, the focus was on establishing the organisation’s operational framework, preparing activities in line with its core objectives, and laying the groundwork for its child-protection focus.

According to the report, in 2019 the founder’s contribution was HUF 100,000,000 and total expenditure was HUF 6,265,000. The organisation had no employees, and no remuneration was paid to its officers.

2020

The COVID period and in-kind assistance

In 2020, due to the pandemic, in-kind donations and direct assistance to institutions took priority over the previously planned cultural and sport programmes.

The foundation supported children living in state care with IT equipment, sports equipment, food and hygiene supplies. Once restrictions eased, it also organised summer camps in Budapest for more than 600 children.

In 2020, the founder’s contribution was HUF 240,000,000, other support HUF 2,209,000, and total expenditure HUF 255,257,000.

In addition, a further donation of IT equipment worth around HUF 240,000,000, carried out with the involvement of the Docler Foundation, was of particular significance and contributed substantially to improving access to digital education for young people in the child-protection care system.

2021

Structuring programmes and building professional foundations

In 2021, the foundation’s programmes launched or grew stronger across several distinct areas: sport, education, in-kind donations, professional cooperation and institutional support.

Key programmes included the Home Garden Programme to renovate the garden of the Gyöngyvirág Street Children’s Home, the Teqball Sports Programme, the scholarship programme run with Kodolányi János University, and support for children’s homes and disadvantaged families.

That year, our foundation helped to explore the situation of young people in the child-protection care system by funding a nationwide study. The research provided a comprehensive picture of the educational paths, future prospects and factors affecting the transition to independent life of those raised in children’s homes. The findings provided an important professional basis for defining the foundation’s programmes and support objectives.

The programmes listed in the public benefit appendix reached several thousand children and young people, including young people living in children’s homes, disadvantaged first-year pupils, and professionals working in child-protection institutions.

In 2021, the founder’s contribution was HUF 240,000,000, other support HUF 2,605,000, and total expenditure HUF 25,781,000.

2022

Expanding experience, sport, education and professional programmes

In 2022, the expansion of programmes continued. The foundation completed the Home Garden Programme, had a salt room built, further developed the Teqball Sports Programme, and continued the KJE scholarship programme.

That year, the foundation placed particular emphasis on strengthening personal relationships with child-protection institutions. During the year, our staff personally visited a significant proportion of the institutions providing children’s-home and residential-home care as part of a nationwide tour, in order to gain first-hand experience of the children’s circumstances and the institutions’ needs. Building on this experience, the foundation carried out numerous education, sport and donation programmes — including back-to-school support, a Christmas experience and donation programme, sports-equipment donations, and support for families and institutions affected by the war in Ukraine — which made everyday life richer and safer for thousands of children.

The first national Recreation and Professional Conference was held, dedicated to supporting child-protection professionals, strengthening their cooperation, providing mental renewal, and sharing good practices.

The 2022 public benefit report presents beneficiary numbers and expenditure by programme in detail.

In 2022, the founder’s contribution was HUF 140,000,000, other support HUF 1,110,000, and total expenditure HUF 108,965,000.

In 2023, the foundation placed even greater emphasis on experience-based support and on developing child-protection professionals.

Under the Smile Programme, an Experience Grant and a Garden Grant were launched, a carnival play-house event was held, and several one-off donations were made. The Teqball Sports Programme, the education-support system, carer training, the Recreation and Professional Conference, and the Nemecsek Programme run jointly with the Hintalovon Foundation also continued.

In 2024, the foundation’s national programmes grew further. As part of the Smile Programme, an Experience Grant, a Community Development Grant, a carnival programme and a cinema experience day were held.

Among in-kind donations, IT equipment and Christmas donations played a prominent role. In the education programmes, back-to-school support, support for the Dr. Ambedkar School, the KJE scholarship programme and a secondary-school scholarship programme continued, and an end-of-year recreation programme for schoolchildren was held.

In the area of professional development, carer training, off-site drug-prevention training and the third Recreation and Professional Conference took place.

2025

Significant institutional development and programme expansion

In 2025, one of the foundation’s largest developments was the Minibus Programme: 15 new 9-seat Ford Transit minibuses were provided for the use of child-protection institutions. The programme aims to support the everyday mobility and the cultural and social inclusion of children’s homes.

Alongside the Smile Programme, the Teqball Sports Programme continued, and education support expanded — including the secondary-school scholarship, the Girls’ Club, driving-licence support and the end-of-year recreation programme. In the area of professional development, training sessions, leadership conferences, drug-prevention and sex-education training, and a special edition of the Recreation and Professional Conference were held.

Health preservation and accident prevention emerged as a new focus: the foundation also supported the Hungarian Child Rescue Foundation and the Hungarian National Drone Pilots Association.

In 2025, the founder’s contribution was HUF 185,250,000, other support HUF 3,743,000, and total expenditure HUF 234,000,000.
