Member association Inspiration receives subsidies for four projects in 2018-2019

The budget for Antwerp's citizens was finalized on October 21, rewarding our member association, Inspiration, for its hard work. Among the 78 projects the city chose to invest in, there were four projects by Inspiration which received enough votes to receive subsidies in 2018-2019.

The decision of which projects to support was made by over 700 of Antwerp's citizens that gathered on Sunday. In total 153 projects were sent in and 78 projects were rewarded, promoting different goals (more social contact, study guidance, more green in the streets, intercultural projects ...). Together, they will receive over 1 million euros in subsidies. Inspiration has the following four projects in the pipeline:

1. A cultural evening (one of the eight winning 'intercultural projects'): an evening at people's homes to get to know each other;
2. A cooking course (one of the seven winning projects 'trainings and education'): three different cultures at the same table;
3. Stories from around the world (intercultural projects): our values and norms and where they originated;
4. Living together, educating together (intercultural projects); an education is given by more than one person and not only done at home.

Inspiration wishes to thank everyone for their support and trust. The organisation will do its utmost best to bring these projects to a good conclusion.
